      That's a good one punch *lol
      I heard no good reviews for the playbook, all those new pads are too expensive and lack in functionality, would only use it for web browsing.
      But a kindle would be a better option for me, especially the currency rates € -> $ are very exciting.

        I have a hard time taking any first gen products seriously anymore, there is always something wrong/broken with them or they die off soon.


        I am a Palm Pre Owner can you tell?

          Didn't realise that was out in the US already, I can't see it doing that well with consumers though unless it is significantly different from the standard Blackberry style interface. Having said that it could carve out a very nice niche in the business market if it gets the right style of applications on it.

            Yeah it was released yesterday. Was just doing a straw poll. Personally, I have an iPad. What got me interested is that a news story from midwest Canada did about the lines for it. They showed a Futureshop with an empty parking lot and the only people there were newspeople. Immediately afterwards, they had a story about lines for the iPad2 yesterday in New York where people still line up daily. Have read a lot of good reviews about the hardware of the Playbook. Unfortunately, the software reviews are the opposite.

            I was wondering if anyone actually got it and what they thought about it personally.
