Motorola Xoom and Berry PlayBook are the best, the iPad1 is good in terms of value, the Acer IconaTab is overpriced but good machine. In the end the BlackBerry will in conjunction with their Business devices be standard in the corporate sector
@sandwichtube ; although it's most likely a verbal mistake during the official presentation - "1 Ghz of RAM" could've meant that RAM is running at 1Ghz of speed; much MUCH faster than ANY of the competition currently has as of May 1st 2011. IF this was true then it could've been seriously interesting.
Updates are coming - I don't want Contacts being native on my WLAN only PlayBook - for Skype Video calls that app would have contacts built-in or an API to "bridge" over BT from my BB into Skype.
I've got the Playbook yesterday and as a BlackBerry user, I'm sure it needs native BBM, e-mail, calendar, contacts etc. Thank god they will release an update soon.
@wicaksono27 Fool EVERY executive reads the test to deliver their speech - whether you SEE the text or not! Heck on the news tv station the teleprompter feeds them text (just watch the pupils of their eyes wiggle with each line when camera zooms into their face.
Borrinng! Nothing but talk, like someone said before, no product demo? no email capability, very little apps, only wi-fi unless you tether to Blackberry phone to access contacts, calender, BBM?
God this was boring....I hope they do a better job of marketing their product instead of having boring presentations. The reason Apple sells more devices is because they make them seem interesting, not mundane and useless.
I never said the iPad or iPad 2 is better than the playbook. I said that Steve Jobs is a great presentor, building on your point? Don't go swearing immediately when someone responds your comment. Read, think, then write a comment
LoL at the lame sports reference to get 8 more sales.. but at least they make it look like this thing can do stuff, not like the embarrassing commercials on tv
@nickdl09 kill iPad sales? Lol the iPhone 3GS out sells every blackberry phone. Lol and the iPad 2 is backordered for like 5 to 6 weeks now blackberry try's to expand to new stuff and always fails. And if you don't believe me the storm 1and 2 is all that needs to be said. Lol
@eddie45b I think the blackberry guys are targeting a very specific market (traditionally, high powered businessmen), and also relying on their existing consumer base.
So, for all of us who aren't high-powered businessmen or existing BB fans... we go for Apples. =D
@NickDL09 NO WAY!! ipad 2 is way BETTER than blackberry playbook. i still cant believe that blackberry said tht the playbook was the first proffesional tablet at multitasking, browsing and more! The first prefesional tablet to come out was the ipad! NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT.........
@villacup1 Actually, it IS the first professional tablet. I own a Ipad 2 and I will be getting a Playbook in October for my birthday. My friend has a playbook.
The Ipad can't mulitask. The browser is a little slower because it SUPPORTS flash AND html5, so really. the browser is faster because the playbook can load flash content, how slow would the Ipad be if they did?
This product is going to fail. I don't why but consumers do not want a 7" tablet since the screen is so damn small. Look at the 7" galaxy tab which did not do well in stores. Samsung is smart for creating a 10.1" galaxy tab because they know that is the form factor that can compete with the iPad and is the consumer's preference for form factor. Any tablet product less than 9.7" is going to fail.
@ericdabbs no cuz a 7 inch tablet is the perfect size 10 inch is too big its like carryiong a netbook trust me being a ipad owner 10 inch is way to big i am selling my ipad for playbook cuz 7 inch is still kinda portable 10inch is way too much you vant even type properly in landscape with your thumbs with 7 inch you can , i bet you dont even own a tablet .. i use my phone more than my ipad just because the thing is way to big to just pull out and use . idiot
@Raphaelplummer yeah and its hard to hold that ipad and type at the same time..u have to use two hands to hold. This one is nice and small and easy to take with you
I was impressed by it, until I viewed a video of it at CES. The unit had 77% battery life and 2 hours life left. - I don't know how they could ever improve that?
The unit also lagged multiple times and at one point the keyboard seemed unresponsive.
I think here is where we see the difference between Apple and everyone else, the culture of Apple is that they're incapable of making and shipping crap. They've done the research and testing and all the thought process for the rest of us and its been proven time and time again, I'm not an Apple fan boy just a keen observer and although BB promises everything and the moon in this device I'd be curious to see how it REALLY performs. Battery life, Flash support... all sounds good but wait and see
First of all Steve Jobs is better at presenting...they look awkward up there. Second, it's just another desperate attempt to beat the iPad. I'm not saying the iPad's better...it's just obvious. I'm sure you'll agree..:)
ahhh i'm really loving this, i soo am planning to get it...just love the way it pairs with a blackberry phone and lets u control it thru the tablet ...but will it have a " Sim Card input like in samsung galaxy ? " ...and how about ' expandable memory slot " ?
Hey everyone, according to Businessinsider, it will have the following prices:
8GB- $399
16GB-$499
32GB-599
So take it for what u will, but it looks like the starting price is $100 lower from the IPAD if true. But nothing over 32B. And who knows if this Ipad 2 come out, what its price or the original will be, but this is good news all around.
So you're saying you make more than his net worth, around 10 billion dollars? Apparently you suck at life because you can't even come close to a high school dropout...amiright? Pretty sure I am. So you can suck it loser.
this is certainly gonna be priced lower than those crappy Apple products which is known for its retarded devices, restricted features and high price tags...most consumers fall for their marketing hype...you want to see a demo just search you tube - head to head comparison with ipad...
this is certainly gonna be priced lower than those crappy Apple products which is known for its retarded devices, restricted features and high price tags...most consumers fall for their marketing hype...
Rubbish, they don't even know wat they talking about, I should have shortern their interview n say we are making something that looks like an ipad. Simple
@mymathersname oh I see, but then there are consumers whishing a more portable device. Something to carry on and actually use it on the outside world.
not convinced... nah.. another junk in the making. another copycat in the making. another design thief in the making. nah, not convinced. the two presenters look so ackward and uncomfortable while the audience sounded like they were being forced to cheer! hahaha! sad case LOL!
nah nah nah not convinced.. back to the revolutionary Ipad! ciao!
Hmmm So it's being positioned as a companion device for the Blackberry phone, with "NSA approved" bluetooth synching.
So what about the security - remote wipe etc - features of the Blackbery phone that IT Administrators love? You remotely wipe the phone but the Playbook hangs on to the data?
I think that there was no point for BLACKBERRY to make such a fulish divice which is very similar to all androids smartphones which are more than 20 at the moment.BLACKBERRY had NOT they want to create : a popular smartphone or a divice to APPLE IPAD. As the result they mixed pad and phone together and made a device which not looks like any types of phone or pad.This device has small screen as a smartphone but you can NOT make any calls with that.I suggest you to wait till March and get newIPAD
@PUGNOBANT..your not listening this is not a phone its a tablet which will let you use flash and the point is to give people options on tablets..do you think the ipad2 will have a dual core or run flash...and don't tell me flash isn't important because you wouldn't buy a pc without flash..apple was the first to do tablets they just made it more affordable and this playbook will sell for under $500
Good thing I did not buy an iPad which looks cool but is handicapped like all mac stuff. Only issue is it gonna take a while to get one in South Africa. Their presentation is not as slick as apples thou. Should have gotten presenters. the thin guy has a lisp. The fat guy looks like a cars sales person. They do need to make a bigger play thou. But i'm gonna get me one.
Playbook would be a instant hit among business and consumer market no matter what. With this kind of specs and OS capabilities I don't see APPL and GOOG catching up for another year. Apple couldn't even get the multi-tasking right in its forth iteration of iPhone. Agreed RIM had some issues with scaling on its aging OS but with QNX in its armor RIM will send its competitors back to the lab. 2011 will be the year of BB.
how original, and how obvious that half the presentation focuses on just 2 things that apple doesnt have (flash and full multitasking). btw they made the same fatal fail as samsung: 7" display. it WAY too small to work on conveniently, and WAY too big to fit in your pocket.
@h4x0y , there are not just talking about basic multi-tasking but symmetrical and distributed multi-tasking and that is huge and a game changer. in QNX, apps can run parts of themselves transparently on different devices on a network. what this means, think about the technology future shown in the movie Avatar where apps were transparently dragged from one screen to another, the screen then detached by the user, and the user walked away with the same application running on the portable device.
This is nice i prefer this much more than the ipad! but bberry needs to be focused on the next bold or curve that does do better camera quality than the ones out now! hope they focus on that or at least bring out strom 3 with more than the i4 has already!
the thing with Apple is that they make something that's not even original, makes it so good that all of its competitors' attempt to throw them off the market is futile.
I think this is wrong blind way... it's like Wii, you've been excited playing in natural way games but... next day I was too exhausted, I think that I do really prefer keyboard instead touchscreen and prefer just do tiny move using my finger to push pointer across the whole screen... I was playing with iPad and got the same problem in terms of ergonomy this is shit device. Keyboard and mousepad will survive!
hehehe my question is? Why they get something new and not try to steal and ideas made by Apple? BB Company should be more original. Devote yourselves to get something better (NEW) to be surprised again! and fail to see what works best taken out of something that Apple already has put the idea!
BE ORIGINAL!! WHY A TABLET LIKE APPLE!? CREATE SOMETHING NEW!!
This is gonna shit all over the iPad and consume it whole. I'm running the final release of iOS 4.2 on my iPad released to developers at the moment and the multitasking is such bs, doesn't actually work, just minimizes your apps, iPad technically can't multitask with 1 processor, the playbook sporting 2 processors can offer "true" multitasking, and performance will be sex when it's out. Apple would need to step up there game next year because it's looking good for blackberry :D
Apple will always be a step ahead as they were when they came out with the iPhone, iPad webcams built in to computers before any other company could get their head around such ideas. iPad multitasking is an update away, and it's a lot faster and more intuitive that seen in the playbook. And would you really carroty this thing around to take pictures, common
Have you red why apple doesn't support flash? For very good reasons including that it drains so much battery life. Also the final comment is that apple is a leader and other companies like blackberry are followers. If it was for copying they could never come out with this product
ive got it im using it to comment get it its REALY GOOD

ipad for sale..
xiomora11 1 year ago
Good thing I did not buy an iPad which looks cool but is handicapped like all mac stuff. Only issue is it gonna take a while to get one in South Africa. Their presentation is not as slick as apples thou. Should have gotten presenters. the thin guy has a lisp. The fat guy looks like a cars sales person. They do need to make a bigger play thou. But i'm gonna get me one.

6:41 - just listen: "gigaherts of RAM" for multitasking??? :) cha cha

Playbook would be a instant hit among business and consumer market no matter what. With this kind of specs and OS capabilities I don't see APPL and GOOG catching up for another year. Apple couldn't even get the multi-tasking right in its forth iteration of iPhone. Agreed RIM had some issues with scaling on its aging OS but with QNX in its armor RIM will send its competitors back to the lab. 2011 will be the year of BB.

how original, and how obvious that half the presentation focuses on just 2 things that apple doesnt have (flash and full multitasking). btw they made the same fatal fail as samsung: 7" display. it WAY too small to work on conveniently, and WAY too big to fit in your pocket.

@h4x0y , there are not just talking about basic multi-tasking but symmetrical and distributed multi-tasking and that is huge and a game changer. in QNX, apps can run parts of themselves transparently on different devices on a network. what this means, think about the technology future shown in the movie Avatar where apps were transparently dragged from one screen to another, the screen then detached by the user, and the user walked away with the same application running on the portable device.

This is nice i prefer this much more than the ipad! but bberry needs to be focused on the next bold or curve that does do better camera quality than the ones out now! hope they focus on that or at least bring out strom 3 with more than the i4 has already!

So much talk. Such little demonstration. If that thing does what they say they shouldn't be treating it like an accessory or a prop.

the thing with Apple is that they make something that's not even original, makes it so good that all of its competitors' attempt to throw them off the market is futile.
Apple makes everything else cheap.

I think this is wrong blind way... it's like Wii, you've been excited playing in natural way games but... next day I was too exhausted, I think that I do really prefer keyboard instead touchscreen and prefer just do tiny move using my finger to push pointer across the whole screen... I was playing with iPad and got the same problem in terms of ergonomy this is shit device. Keyboard and mousepad will survive!

hehehe my question is? Why they get something new and not try to steal and ideas made by Apple? BB Company should be more original. Devote yourselves to get something better (NEW) to be surprised again! and fail to see what works best taken out of something that Apple already has put the idea!
BE ORIGINAL!! WHY A TABLET LIKE APPLE!? CREATE SOMETHING NEW!!

This is gonna shit all over the iPad and consume it whole. I'm running the final release of iOS 4.2 on my iPad released to developers at the moment and the multitasking is such bs, doesn't actually work, just minimizes your apps, iPad technically can't multitask with 1 processor, the playbook sporting 2 processors can offer "true" multitasking, and performance will be sex when it's out. Apple would need to step up there game next year because it's looking good for blackberry :D

Apple will always be a step ahead as they were when they came out with the iPhone, iPad webcams built in to computers before any other company could get their head around such ideas. iPad multitasking is an update away, and it's a lot faster and more intuitive that seen in the playbook. And would you really carroty this thing around to take pictures, common

Have you red why apple doesn't support flash? For very good reasons including that it drains so much battery life. Also the final comment is that apple is a leader and other companies like blackberry are followers. If it was for copying they could never come out with this product
