i am currently using a playbook and its awesome. Samsung tab stands nowhere. Better screen resolution, sound, camera. And, the best part, u'll get to run two operating softwares. Bbos along with android. I've all the android apps like whatsapp, skype and other android app nd games without any configuration change. I just say, go for it, if u want one. I have got my hands on galaxy tab, hcl me, bb pb and undoubtedly nd confidently, i rate playbook, the best.

The only issue is you dont have a sim slot. And you will have to use the net by tethering (connecting it to any phone wid bluetooth), bb bridge(connecting to a bb phone) or wifi. So, no major issue here also.

Blackberry as of the pricing at the moment is the best priced-tab in the market. Clear & crisp display, good camera for stills and HD video recording. Web browsing is fast and great display, office software is very handy and useful. Apps and games that are available are the best. A few dozen of quality apps and games is way better than tons of craps! I am okay with games and apps that I have. Playbook might not compete well with Galaxy Tab and Iphone, but its probably better than all the rest. I saw an Android Tab from no name company sells 280 USD, with specs that is infrior than playbook.

Pros ;
Fast browser, clear display, multi tasking,

Cons ;
Limited app support, no skype, no video calls, limited games, need to convert android apps to .iba format to install on this bb playbook.

Skype annouced that it will not support bb pb. Thats why its on bargain and not reproduced..

Recommendation:
Buy an Ipad or Android tab!!
When it comes software support and loads of new apps and games. Only android and ios are the stable ones.

> In reply to adi9833015454 @ 2012-05-16 18:40 from 2A4R - click to readIts been one month with my playbook.i purchased it from official outlet of BlqckBerry(hira-panna,haji ali)

Even i was searching for a budget tab and i did have an option of galaxy tab 7 and this playbook.

And same as u...most of the shopkeepers tried to convince me to buy galaxy tab rather than playbook...simply because of the price diffrence,nothing else !!!

But personally i didnt like the honeycomb perfomance at all,so i went with the playbook and trust me i have no regrets at all !!! It saves me quite some bucks too ;)

Only disspointing part is its camera,other than that i am very happy with my choice,best of luck. :)

The Blackberry Playbook is great when browsing websites, doing office works (word,excel), taking photos and videos with good lighting...

Although there are limited games (need for speed, blood and glory, backbreaker 2), they run quite well and virtually no crashes..

it might take some time of getting used to but if you got the hang of it, the Playbook is one of the best tablet pc to date..

and let's wait for the Blackberry 10 OS.... ohhh boy! =))

> In reply to sidthecool @ 2012-05-08 18:48 from TL5a - click to readBB Playbook can run Android apps but only those which are converted to Playbook platform. Some of the converted apps can be found in the AppsWorld and can be directly downloaded and installed to Playbook. The other way is to install an app to Playbook as a sideload. Sideloading is uploading an app to your device using another computer and specific program.
