    Thanks for reviews guys.
    I am also Palm/webOS user and like BlackBerry because use webOS style gesture. Now using Z10. And as said, PB is not choice over TP.

    Still hope BlackBerry build the small Veer size

    I have 4 Veers, best phones I have ever had. The size isn't for constant media use (internet, Facebook,etc) but it gets by. As for a pocket phone that is still a smart phone, it can't be beat. That is until Mar 24 when HP is shutting down the servers! That's why I went Z10, and so far pretty happy about everything it does but man is it big in my pocket!

    +1, once I got my Z10, my PlayBook sits on my night stand as a bedside clock. Browsing on it is like surfing on dial-up. Guess I could re-load the OS but don't think it's worth the time. I'm thinking of picking up a 7" Galaxy Tab.

    I'd take a PlayBook for free but wouldn't pay any dollar amount for it.

    PlayBook browsing is much better if you find what you want on the phone and launch it on the Playbook with Bridge enabled and select- share; open on playbook.
    A lot less time farting around with the slower browser.
    Using the Z10 as a remote for the playbook is great also.
    I watch a lot of things on my TV using the Playbook, HDMI cable, magnetic (cord, not cradle) rapid charger, chair to sit in, Z10 to find what I want to watch, and launch with.

    I just stepped into the BB World.
    I was a WebOS user with a few Palm/HP phones and an HP 10" Touchpad to go with them. Nice combos.

    Now rockin a Z 10 and I have been looking at the Playbooks online. I can get them for as little as $50.
    Do they merge nicely with BB 10 and the Z 10?
    Are they worth the effort with such an old operating system?
    Tx
    The answer for all your questions is simply "No".

    I will say though, it made a very good music player when it's coupled with Neutron Player.
    It has a Wolfson DAC chip as well.

    At windsr can you explain how you share a site or something from your z10 to your playbook using bridge. When I am on a website and press share the playbook is not appearing as an option.

    Thanks

    The option "Open on {name of your PlayBook}" is there under Share if your PlayBook is bridged to the phone.

    PlayBook is very old. You should buy some android or windows tab.
    For android-
    Nokia N1, xolo Tegra note, nexus 9, Nvidia shield and dell venue 8 7840
    For Windows -
    Dell venue 8 pro.

    All these are very nice. Buy whichever you like the most.

    - bridge needs to be set up and both the phone and Playbook need Bluetooth on and paired together.

    - surf for what you want to watch on the phone and then push the overflow tab (three vertical dots) on the bottom right of the screen. Tap share.

    Select "open on playbook "

    If "open on playbook " isn't there, then you need to run the bridge setup again to pair your phone and tablet.
    This has happened on occasion to me.
    May have something to do so having 5 playbooks spread around. Actually, 4 Playbooks, as one is for parts. They get used every day.
