Good morning! Here are some of today’s top tech links so far. We’ll cover a few of these throughout the day but feel free to get a head start.

**iPad 2: also comes in white?**

_Link:_ [_9to5Mac_](http://www.9to5mac.com/54178/ipad-2-also-comes-in-white "undefined")

Will the iPad 2—expected this Wednesday—also come in white? Either that, or aftermarket accessory makers may already be building white bezels.

**Gmail accidentally resetting accounts, years of correspondence vanish into the cloud?**

_Link:_ [_Engadget_](http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/27/gmail-accidentally-resetting-accounts-years-of-correspondence-v/ "undefined")

A handful of Gmail users (less than one percent) reported a mass deletion of e-mails and contacts over the weekend. Google has located the problem and will be restoring access to affected users “in the near future.”

**BlackBerry PlayBook will support Android apps, RIM rep proclaims**

_Link:_ [_Boy Genius Report_](http://www.bgr.com/2011/02/27/blackberry-playbook-will-support-android-apps-rim-rep-proclaims-video/ "undefined")

While rumors of BlackBerry devices being able to run Android apps have been growing, a video that surfaced from the recent Mobile World Congress conference captures an actual BlackBerry rep saying that the PlayBook tablet will eventually support Android apps.

**JPMorgan fund eyes 10% stake in Twitter**

_Link:_ [_Financial Times_](http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/618e0bb4-42a9-11e0-8b34-00144feabdc0.html "undefined")

For all you business types out there, rumor has it that JPMorgan may be looking to dump $450 million into Twitter. That’s reportedly a 10% slice, which would value the service at $4.5 billion.
