Control Unauthorized Apps And Hardware On BlackBerry PlayBook

Three hackers say they have "jailbroken" the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, allowing them to run unauthorized applications and control hardware components that users can't normally access. "We've done it. We've broken RIM's fancy security," said a hacker who goes by the alias "neuralic" in a demonstration video posted on Youtube. He said he collaborated on the project with two other hackers, known as Xpvqs and Chris "cmw" Wade.
