Online and mail-order video company Netflix has no plans to bring its streaming service to Research In Motion s PlayBook tablet.
"We don t have any current plans to support BlackBerry devices, including Play-Book," the company said on Twitter late on Thursday in response to a query.
Netflix has long been available for Apple s iPhone and iPad and devices running Google s Android software.
RIM s library of third party applications lags those of Apple and Android but the Canadian company has increased its focus on developers in recent months in a bid to close the gap.
RIM upgraded the software of its poor-selling PlayBook on Tuesday, making it possible for app makers to easily move their existing Android apps across to the PlayBook.
The upgrade also enables a BlackBerry smartphone to remotely control the tablet, which connects to a television via a standard cable.
It was not immediately clear if Netflix would port its existing Android app across rather than create a specific app for PlayBook.
