About your BlackBerry ID
BlackBerry ID gives you a single sign-in identity across BlackBerry products, sites, services, and apps, including the BlackBerry  App World storefront . After you create a BlackBerry ID, you only need to use one email address and one password to log in to any products that use BlackBerry ID.
When you set up your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, you are prompted to create your BlackBerry ID. You can choose the email address that you want to use for your BlackBerry ID. If you have a user name and password that you use for email accounts on 
your BlackBerry smartphone, that user name is different than your BlackBerry ID.
To update your BlackBerry ID information, go to https://blackberryid.blackberry.com/bbid/login/.
About BlackBerry Balance
BlackBerry Balanceaddresses corporate security concerns without limiting your use of personal applications. Using distinct  areas of your tablet called perimeters, you can separate your work and personal activities. A perimeter is a grouping of 
applications, data, and network connections that allows for targeted control and management. It has separate data storage, 
application permissions, and network routing rules.
By default, your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet uses a personal perimeter. Your corporate IT department can then create a work 
perimeter by enrolling in a management solution. You can also use a BlackBerry Bridge perimeter to create an insulated area to 
view data and applications on your BlackBerrysmartphone.
Your personal perimeter provides the opportunity to use your tablet without impacting corporate security policies in your  corporate perimeter. Your personal perimeter allows you to use your tablet for activities not sanctioned by your employer such 
as downloading videos, playing online multi-player games, and uploading personal photos and Facebook entries.

							Your work perimeter can contain a modified version of BlackBerry App World that contains the applications you are allowed to download and use at work. It can also provide an area where you can create, edit, and save work documents and slide decks.
