With PlayBook I will be able to do the following:

With Blue Tooth tether to my Storm 2 I should be able to do anything I can do on Storm 2 using larger PlayBook screen and touch screen keyboard.

My speeds will be as good as with Storm 2 or better.

I will not be charged any tether fees-I have Verizon service (where they do charge tether fees for other devices).

With PlayBook using it's internal WiFi interface, I will be able to do everything I can do on my laptop using WiFi as far as internet access goes.

I can set up a local WiFi network in my home (using my laptop and it's Verizon broadband interface) and use the PlayBook WiFi interface and do everything I am currently doing relative to internet usage with PlayBook.

I will be able to print from my PlayBook using a Blue Tooth compatible printer.

If these are all true, I will gladly spend the $3-500 for a PlayBook.

I think you're good on everything except the printing. Don't know about that one. But, we're still speculating most things...

I think you will be looking at something like $1000.

I think you will be looking at something like $1000.

WHERE did you get that number?

During the launch they said it would be prices competitive to what is currently available, which would place a NON 3G pricing in the $600 range or lower..

And really to be competitive in a new space it would have to be even cheaper

i believe the price will be close to the ipad and not $1,000.00

I can print from my bold 9000 and torch... I don't see why we couldn't print from the playbook as well

[gregerator]

How do you print from your Bold and Torch?

[jstarett]

Blue tooth connect to my printer than send doc/pic to printer

I personal thing it's going to cost about $100 less then the iPad. Apple products are always more expensive then other products so I hope the same is true for tablets.
