Here’s the 35-minute short film Kanye west briefly teased at the VMAs last month.

PLAYBOOK BLACKBERRY SIMULATOR APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT

Somehow, people seemed to love the PlayBook by RIM. Part of it might be the OS developed by QNX. Now RIM has announced the availability of the Adobe AIR SDK for their BlackBerry Tablet OS. Tagging along this SDK is something called the BlackBerry PlayBook Simulator. Hopefully we will see lots of applications for the PlayBook once it hits retail. The simulator requires Adobe AIR 2.5 to run, while the latest release from RIM’s site is still offering 2.0.2. So be patient and wait for RIM to update its site if you’re eager to play around with the SDK.

Unfortunately, there’s still no timeline for a release on each platform, with Adobe only saying that that Flash 10.1 is “expected” to hit each mobile OS.
