The BlackBerry PlayBook was delayed for a long time to have its OS built to be rock solid, but shortly after the PlayBook was launched, and there is already a problematic batch. Nearly 1,000 faulty tablets were shipped to Staples, and now they’re being recalled.

RIM has commented that the faulty batch of tablets was indeed limited to the approximately 1,000 units, and that they had a faulty build of the OS. Furthermore, the company says that only a few went out to customers and that most are still in distribution, so with any luck you’ll never have to deal with this problem to begin with.

The list of serial numbers for the affected BlackBerry PlayBooks has been attached after the jump for you to search.
