Not trying 2 b a fanboy or anything, but how often wud u take a make a call or take a photo with ur TABLET?
As for not having 3G, I agree it's an inconvenience for some, but for those that already have a BB, there's already the BB Bridge!

i'm always use 3g video call... even my wife is not far from me.. just for a family man.. i dont think taking photo with 7" tablet is weird for me or you got problems with that? if ipad, yes of couse...little annoying because of it sizes..

years ago smartphones is the best, nowdays smartphone cant compete with tablet because of screen sizes.. when i bought my Nokia N80 internet.. i would say, is the best things i ever buy... since then i can surf net, 3g video talk & bla4... especially taking pictures & videos.. i enjoy it much..

now, when 7" tablet exploded the market... which one u choose? smartphone or tablet?

conlusions - portable & many functions... like 5 in 1 or 10 in 1...

MANSTIR

@Manstir:

I'll suggest you Samsung Galaxy Tab then. All in one as you wished.

We have reasons why we're quite happy with the WiFi model of the BlackBerry Playbook.

yes.. since "samsung tablet" marketed, I was very interested but when I look at the specifications .. SG lack of memory (RAM).. instead of BBP got 1 GB RAM..

wait for it. Since when RIM would have favourable review?

we ain't a cult like Apple *grin* zombies.
by the way; let me post a 'soalan cepu emas'.
Why the need for a calendar app, an email app, and an address book app,

WHEN YOU CAN ACCESS YOUR EMAIL IN ITS FULL GLORY? (HTML, FLASH, etc etc)

*grin*
*
i think, calender app & address Book is a must items in PB instead of email app... because email we can browse through web browser...no problem at all.... calender we can put birthdays, things to do like your personal life arrangement... & so on... anyway.. whatever it is.. i should wait for 4G PB release & review...
