Playbook Won’t Have E-mail, Calendar, and Contacts App At Launch… WTF?

This was posted to crackberry.com today and I have to admit I am sort of mystified. According to a Verizon webinar, there will not be e-mail, contacts and calendar apps when the tablet launches. That will come in a future software update. I have no clue if this is accurate or not. But if it is, it’s one huge dis-incentive in terms of my decision to potentially buy one.

Why?

Buying a product and depending on a future software upgrade to bring functionality that should be present at launch is lame. The question is, will it be an epic fail for RIM?

Tune in on April 19th to find out.
