Basically, your pc accesses your PB like an network drive. Can just drag and drop files and delete items too. When you delete a file, you'll see it disappear from the PB. All this without physically connecting both PC and PB. Kinda cool for me.

Bro Kentchow75, I regretted getting a 16G PB coz it was never enuf for such a awesome tablet. Medias run super smooth in PB. Not enuf storage to store my videos. Recording in HD is very good too....

Some Android apps do crash after conversion. However, with the new OS 2.0, our option for apps has became much better and I believe our PB will get better with each updates.

Basically, awareness for PlayBook sucks big time. I'd say the A&P is next to nothing!. You don't see any advertisements in print media. There's no BlackBerry concept or dedicated outlet unlike Apple.

BlackBerry needs to invest like they did in Indonesia. But then again, do we have the numbers? Catch 22 situation for them.

That's why, BlackBerry must let BB users know how fantastic this PB is! These users are already using BB, but when it comes to tablets, not many know about PB! These are their ready made target!

Bridge is a fantastic feature that BB users can exploit to reduce expenses or dependance on wifi or an extra SIM card/account. BlackBerry Malaysia needs to do more on the A&P side....

For multi tasking, I find PB is the best. I have no experience using Android based tablet but in terms of ease of use, not even iPad comes close.

BlackBerry should kick its Malaysia's distributor's ass....

Just bear in mind that when bridging, speed is not that fast as logging in to a wifi. It's however super convenient when there's no wifi option available.

I think many are obsessed with how many apps Android or iOS has compared to PB. To me, number of available apps is not as important as number of good and useful apps. What's a billion crappy apps if you can't use it?

Bridging has got nothing to do with wifi. It's a proprietary system developed by RIM for BB users to connect to their PB for an extension of features like BBM.

Yes, you can stream youtube if bridged.

Added on June 12, 2012, 12:36 pmSideloaded few apps. Flipboard works but Minecraft crashes. What I don't like abt the site was there's no description on apps; just tumbnails.
