Canadian mobile phone maker Research In Motion has been long working on the release of a 4G flavor of their BlackBerry PlayBook tablet PC, and it appears that they are finally nearing the official launch of this device.

No formal announcement on the matter was made for the time being, but what appear to be the first photos with the device have just emerged online.

In the first image embedded below, you will be able to see the SIM card slot, located next to the charging port, HDMI out slot and other ports.

The second photo shows the tablet PC’s settings screen, where you can see the ‘mobile network’ icon.

These photos appeared over at the CrackBerry forums and might not be the real thing, so we’ll take them with a grain of salt for the time being.
