Nope, dropbox apps already available in app world, but only for bb smartphone.
For playbook not yet available, but got other alternative such as box.
Box give 50gb free additional space for playbook user.  biggrin.gif

Mind enlighten me what kind of "box" you are mentioning?

IF not available directly available for the playbook, the BB bridge can get the files i want from dropbox through my BB9500?

Thank You.

Guys, just got my playbook 16GB.

The only question is, is it actually safe to use my nokia charger with 4 times output capacity to charge it? Original charger are charging way too slow....

yup, if u sign up from playbook then u will get the 50gb.
but if u alrdy sign up from browser, then want additional 50gb that box offer. u only need sign in from playbook, then u will get 50gb..

Aiks, I guess I am the last person to actually update to the previous is.

Anyway, the box cannot actually sync the files to playbook?

Thanks a lot for the tips.

Kinda agree, but box 50gb is kinda tempting not nice to use.

Btw, I cannot download the dropbox from the app world through playbook

How you get it ya? Thank you.

Indeed, but not that bad when compared to the some China tablets or some android tablets (including certain samsung models). However, this tablet takes the longest time to boot up and i have to live on with it for a long time. T.T

Bro, that 1 if I am not mistaken, it is the owner file rather than the tools?
