shaping up to be the perfect tablet for me. The capability to connect this with not only a BT keyboard, but also FULLY control the device with a BT mouse makes it almost the Atrix of tablets. Use it as a great multi-tasking tablet or connect to an LCD or TV and it just becomes the "brains." It works great through my Verizon iPhone hotspot and works flawlessly on the Flash sites I need to access. Much has been made in the initial reviews of the lack of a native email app, requiring the use of the Bridge bluetooth connection to a BlackBerry. I don't have a BB phone or plan on getting one. It's really a non-issue to me, however, as the GMail site running in the browser is just fine. I've had an iPad 3G for about 6 months, but rarely use it for email throughout the day--the iPhone is just so convenient and fast. Presentation-mode is another huge plus for me. I am eagerly awaiting the Kindle and native Twitter apps for this device, but I'm very satisfied so far. Check out the Crackberry.com full review for an in-depth take on the Playbook.
