Really do you have to ask this question?

There is no netflix support for the Playbook, and there will never better. If you must have Netflix on a tablet go buy an Android or iPad device, or better yet a surface device.

The more accurate answer is that the PB has no framework to support anything beyond Android Runtime 2.3.3. Any native-style apps like Netflix require Android 4.2 and above.

Yes, I had to ask, I didn't know the answer.

As someone who owns a Surface, an ipad mini, and a Touchpad (with android) I have a lot of options. I still lug my playbooks around (I have three) because the size is great!

I have found the only app I miss is Netflix. It seemed reasonable to a none techy that if bb10 android player got upgraded that the playbooks might be possible as well.

have a good day.

Actually that is not exactly true. I have had Netflix running on my BB10 devices since well before Android 4.2 was added. In fact I had Netflix running on my Alpha Dev A before we even had the full BB10. I think Netflix requires API's from anything Android 2.3.x and above. Unfortunately the debug method doesn't seem to work on the Playbook, that and I think the Playbook only has Android 2.2.x (Not 100% sure on that so don't beat me up over it lol!)

All that being said, Netflix is making a big push to HTML5, which could eventually mean some sort of access for the Playbook. Just don't hold your breath over it.

I have been watching movies from amazon prime on my Playbook. I may leave Netflix n go with prime when my free trial on Amazon prime runs out
