New owner of Playbook 16GB reporting in.
Contrary to others, personally I don't find it necessary to put down/bash any other tablets just to make the Playbook look good. Each has its own merits and weaknesses. This coming from a guy with a Xoom and iPad 2 as well. |

When you can access the web the way it is on a desktop, the websites are my apps. Browsing the web is its strength. Better than my iPad 2.

Everytime I start my BBM on my PB, it always loads for a bit before it closes on it's own.
I have to keep opening BBM for at least 3-4 times before it finally stays open. Any idea why this is happening and how do I solve this problem? Thx guys! |

Delete those grey out one or not important one. Will help to load faster.I have to keep opening BBM for at least 3-4 times before it finally stays open.

I'm now into watching TV shows streamed directly instead of downloading them, Playbook does that with gusto. iPad? No option whatsoever, since it prohibits Flash. The normal web browsing experience is as good as iPad, pinch-to-zoom/scroll inertia and has the one-up on iPad when it comes to tabbed browsing and browsing Flash-heavy content websites. |
