Vodafone will be bringing the BlackBerry PlayBook and the Bold 9780 smartphone together in a monthly package when the Research In Motion tablet is released next week.
With many early reviews pointing to the shortcomings of the ‘Bridge’ system that pairs BlackBerry phones with PlayBooks and the implications for users that don’t use a BlackBerry phone, Vodafone is bridging the gap with their latest bundle.

The PlayBook tablet will be available on Wednesday, June 29 with a BlackBerry Bold 9780 for $59 per month on Vodafone’s $49 cap plan over a 24 month contract. There’s also the option for a $65 Infinite Plan for $75 per month.
Vodafone will be launching HTC’s new social media-centric phones, the ChaCha and Salsa, the following day. Both phones have a dedicated Facebook button, while the ChaCha is fitted with a QWERTY keyboard.
