BlackBerry Tablet - PlayBook!

[beth]

i've grown to hate my blackberry phone, but this looks pretty nice really.
one of my major problems with the blackberry is the camera which is nowhere near 3mp or whatever it's supposed to be. would like to see whether the quality is any better on their tablets.

I felt the same way about the iPad and multitasking. Infact I seriously considered returning mine because I couldn't multitask. But then I found a 4.2 upgrade on Google. I installed it and it gave me multitasking and since then I have been very content. Other then the multitasking problem my other big complaint is that I make many mistakes on the keyboard, although its more than likely that I am just a horrible typer to begin with!

You'd have to treat it like a giant keyboard Lay it on a table and type with both hands. I can see myself doing that, or using Swype if I was using an Android device

You can have a good looking 0.3mp camera, it's just dependant on the hardware the camera uses, like the sensors etc, not how many megapixels it is

That happens when you drop it on your face.

The tablet is TINYYYY though.

Looks nice, but would never ever appeal to me. Don't like BlackBerry's, never have never will.

I don't think it will even get close to to the iPad.

Competition is good though.

EDIT - whats the point in having a tablet of that size? just stick to smartphones if they're going to be that size tbh.

Yeah that's the problem I face.

If I put it on my lap then I like to have my knees up as so the screen is tilted accordingly; but of course it slides down onto my belly if I do that.

If I try to hold it like, well--a game boy or phone of sorts then I completely fail at typing on it with two thumbs. It just doesn't work for me

good specs by the looks of things. Any word on the price?


however. I do feel as if a tablet should be big. at least bigger than that anyway.

On the latter I agree with you. I really do. Although maybe I have to see it first to really be certain. It just looks so small to me though!

I'm not a big fan of blackberry, however the spec looks quite decent and I'm in love with how small it is.

Hmmm, hard to say really if it is too small :/ The iPad is probably verging on being a bit too big for a handheld device, you can have it a few metres away and have a decent enough picture rather than have your head in it like most people do, so it could be an ideal size. It's hard to get an idea of the size from the internet
