Thinking of getting a PB; but then again I'm a bit worried about the reliability issues.... can't connect, limited apps, inconsistent of Bridge and not so favorable reviews.

Anyway, users like you guys should know better. Is it really better than iPad or Galaxy Tab?

I for one would like something smaller than iPad; but iPad have more apps (esp games!).

Need advise as Celcom has good offer on PB.

Ya... should do that.

Anyway, any major issue with the PB?

I'm a BB user, that's why I'm more keen to get a PB rather than other tablets.

Games? Ya, maybe but more on media playing like videos. Communicating by BBM and e-mails with attachments are part of my job since I do travel quite a lot.

As for doc processing, not that much.

The latest version of PB can actually have e-mails, BBM without bridging to BB, right?

BTW, I tried Bridging my PB and Bold and it worked wonderfully smooth.

Need to know why is my d/load speed so slow? I know my SCREAMYX is slow but it's just wayyyyy to slow.

As for different server with different d/l speed, how do we determine which server to use?

Sorry to ask silly Qs, but I'm a newbie .....

My PB just froze today. I was doing BBM on it. As I was exiting the app, the PB just froze!!!!

Tried to shut down but nothing happens.

Plugged to the Desktop Manager; nothing happens.

Then a friend taught me to press the Power button for a few sec, and try again to restart. Luckily it works! I was already on my way to the dealer to submit my warranty card for claim.

Any of you encountered this before? Hope this is not a regular thing.

Any apps that I can d/l so I can use video call to others like a PC or iPad? The one pre-installed is only for PB, right?

Can PB type Chinese characters?

I'm not techy expert. Would like to know what's the advantage of Jailbreaking the PB? Will it actually do any damages to the PB's soft and/or hardware?

Chinese support concerns? Check http://forums.crackberry.com/blackberry-pl...e-input-610183/

With official OS 2.0 Beta bundled in some PB there's no need to Jailbreak. ;-)
You can run Android APPs of course.thats the ++of it..

Seems that we can forget about Chinese input method.... mad.gif

Can't wait til Feb come. Hope witht he new updates, Android can be supoorted without much problem; then PB will be a killer tablet!

I don't think PB can but latest update for BB phones can. It even have the begging feature, where u can ask your friend to gift you the app.

I use original BB convertible case. Bought it at KLCC. Cost me RM168. Got to say, hard to find its accessories, unlike iPads.


Added on December 27, 2011, 3:30 pmI'm now looking for the mini HDMI cable.

I think even in India, they are throwing the price like mad. Just hope they'll do it here to build up user base. Otherwise, a good tablet will be considered an outcast.
