Best screen for a 7 inch, never seen one better yet. Best sound, with two real FRONT speakers for stereo (Ipad: crappy mono) Easy to use, factory loaded with all you could need to watch movies, listen music, surf, email, work. Many free games on the appstore.

PlayBook may be an odd name for BlackBerry's first tablet, but RIM's 7in PlayBook offers a refreshing interface and smooth performance that live up to its name. However, beyond the great multitasking and intuitive UI, the PlayBook holds little appeal for non-BlackBerry smartphone users.

Great software; multitasking and slick UI; Excellent performance; Comfortable size for travelling and commuting

No native calendar; e-mail or contacts apps (yet; Limited selection of apps in App World; Not much appeal for non-BlackBerry users

Canadians are a funny lot. When they are not rioting over a hockey game, they're inventing some pretty useful comms gadgetry such as the BlackBerry smartphone. However, as they say in hockey, you are only as good as your last win and when it comes to Blackberry developer Research in Motion (RIM),...

only works to its full potential with a BlackBerry email account; App-free zone, lack of browser choices

Playbook is the first tablet launched by BlackBerry. I was very excited for it, but after purchasing and using it, ut was very disappointed by it. It has good design and the built quality but I lacks in features.

What the PlayBook can do, it does very well. We thought this would be the dry middle-aged tablet, but we've been impressed by how well it's been able to handle video, music (through the great 7Digital music store) and the internet browsing experience.

Perfect for those who already own a Blackberry phone and would like a small mini tablet for work or play with Blackberry Bridge software you can sync between you phone tablet and your computer what ever the brand

The BlackBerry PlayBook is RIM's entry into the burgeoning tablet market that is currently dominated by Apple. It faces a stiff competition from the iPad and the various Android tablets that are just now coming to market. Does RIM have what it takes to compete at this level of consumer tablet?

Fast response; Great screen; Solid build quality; Future promise

BlackBerry smartphone required for many tasks; Few apps; missing core functionality; Mediocre camera

I bought the Playbook since it seemed to be a good fit for my use. I carry a BB Bold (AT&T service) for work and thought this would be my best option for productivity and as a useful 'toy' when traveling. I read the reviews and was slightly worried that it was too early to buy, but I went for it.

Right now, the BlackBerry PlayBook is ideal for a BlackBerry smartphone user looking to purchase a tablet. This is mainly due to the BlackBerry Bridge sync option. However, even then we would advise potential buyers to wait it out till there is a respectable apps eco-system.

Excellent multitasking; Brilliant display; Flash and Adobe AIR support

Limited number of apps; Biased towards BlackBerry smartphone users; Poor implementation of the power/sleep button
