Aside from the PlayBook 2.0 beta OS updates we’ve been seeing, the official build got an update as well today.  This one’s version 1.0.8.4895.  Included in this update is:

  • Updated version of Adobe® Flash® Player version 11.1 and Adobe AIR® 3.1
  • Daylight savings time updates for time zones in the regions of Latin America, Australia and Central America
  • Updated Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi® software to help to improve connectivity
  • Fixed issues some users were experiencing with account payments in the BlackBerry App World™ storefront
  • Improved synching when restoring applications with BlackBerry Desktop Software

To download the update, head over to the Software Updates tab in Options of your BlackBerry PlayBook and begin downloading! The file is 95MB only, so it shouldn’t take long to update on a fair WiFi connection.
