This tablet was my childhood. Yeah it sucks in comparison with the iPad 2, but it was my first ever tablet. When I received this as my Christmas gift I was very happy. Games and apps were limited, but something about BlackBerry's own OS mad...

Dang, why you guys so mean to this tablet. It's a tablet from 12 years ago, no sh*t it sucks. But is it really useful to complain about a 12 year old tablet? Let's be real, the only purpose it serves now is nostalgia and a trip down me...
