RIM's BlackBerry PlayBook is a fast, powerful 7-inch tablet with HDMI output, advanced multitasking and security, and a browser that integrates Adobe Flash 10.2 for a desktop-style Web experience
The 7-inch screen cramps the powerful browser, the wake button is difficult to push, and app selection trails the competition
The BlackBerry PlayBook ably showcases RIM's powerful new mobile operating system, but its middling size diminishes many of its best features.
Sharp display has vivid, accurate colors, High-definition video playback impresses, Light weight makes this conducive to hold in hand
Initial software is buggy and lacks polish, No integrated e-mail, contacts, or calendaring, Awkwardly designed onscreen keyboard

Abstract: The BlackBerry PlayBook tablet surely is one beautiful device. Right from the very first look at the tablet you’ll want to get your hands on the monolithic black tablet’s, button-less facade. But once you put your hands on it, things changes drasticall...
One mistake I believe a lot of members of the press make is assuming that today's two-horse race is representative of the future of this industry. While Apple and Google are clearly out to a substantial lead, there are still more revolutions that will tak...
Occasionally glitchy softwareMissing appsExpensive for a seven-incher
Writing this review has been a lot like trying to hit a moving target thanks to a series of software updates that have been dropping every few days. The PlayBook of today is considerably better than the PlayBook of yesterday, which also was a big step for...
