The online deal will get customers one free Playbook with the purchase of two, along with offering a free accessory for each tablet such as a charging pad, an HDMI cable or a leather sleeve.
This new attempt to boost sales of the seven inch tablet follows constant rumors (denied by RIM) that the Playbook is on the verge of extinction. Retailers have cut the price of the Playbook by as much as $200 in recent weeks. However, a planned operating system update for the Playbook has now been delayed from this fall to sometime in February 2012.
