    Default BlackBerry smartphone as an input device for the Playbook?

    Is this in the works, or is there already an app for this? Over Bluetooth would be wicked.

    Features I'd like:

    Keyboard input
    Trackpad navigation!

    *sorry about the mistake in the topic title - it won't let me change it from "has" to "as"!*

    Should be a part of the next OS update. I read that somewhere.

    I have suggested this on many CrackBerry forums, as well as a BB specific forum but I haven't heard if this functionality is being looked into. It would be SWEEET to use the big screen of the PlayBook along with the great keyboard of the 9900/9930.. Let's just keep our fingers crossed that it will be coming with OS 2.0.

    Well, I'm ridiculously excited about that. A remote control for my Playbook linked to a TV! Awesome...

    I remember reading it a post here. One of those question and answer from some RIM employee. Quick google search shows this. I don't know these people though. BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 Features We Know | N4BB - News for BlackBerry - leaks, rumors, videos, faqs, reviews
