    Before 2.0.1.358 I had a few crashes(poofs�) but none after the update.
    The latest update seems to have increased browser speed and stability for me. I was wondering if others are experiencing the same thing.

    My browser seems sluggish since the update. I'm not sure how to correct this or if it is all related to the update but I have noticed it a lot more.

    No crashes since the latest update. But I haven't used my Playbook much since then.

    Page loading is definitely slower on my Playbooks.

    Before 2.0.1.358 my browser rarely crashed and I haven't had a crash since the new update.....IMO, the PlayBook keeps getting better and better with each update. Just like it's supposed to

    Mine hasn't crashed since .358

    The next task is to get rid of the checker-boarding until the page loads

    For me the browser is better. It's a great browser

    Mine crashed once while searching for an image on google. I will now avoid google as much as possible.

    So far I'm pretty impressed! No crashes yet, I have even tried to re-create a crash and nada so far.. Maybe one day it will crash once or whatever but so far so good.

    Browsing speed is faster for me in general, but once in a while I do feel like it hangs slightly. But most of the time its running somewhat faster for me.

    Crashes were a problem pre-update. Now, they they haven't happened (*knocks on wood*). I can also clear my browsing history without having the browser crash. Could never do that before.

    Not a single one since updating. Browser is generally faster too.

    I have been traveling in Mexico and Colombia. Video chat among other internet based apps are working really well.

    Only a complain I have is predictive text quits working when I use bridge email and BBM. Quite annoying, ,,

    I browser crashed maybe about 5 times since update but far better then what it used to be. So overall im happy. My browser does seem slower at times as well. I thought it was just me.

    I have 2 PB's, a 32gb bought new and a used store demo 16gb recently picked up from ebay. The used PB has not crashed while my original has been noticeably worse than what it was in 2.0. , which has surprised me as it's the first issue I have had that is bothersome. No real changes in page loading speed noticed in either PB.

    The 32gb was upgraded through the DM while the 16gb was upgraded OTA.
    I'm still evaluating it, but may decide to wipe the 32gb and reload OTA. With 2 PB's to compare performance, find that sites that crash in the one unit are fine with the other PB. I think that there are issues with the Desktop Manager to PB interface, it is not clean like you should expect from a pc connection. Watched it 'load' the wallpapers by the progress bar, yet they don't show up in the DM'd PB.

    My browser was sluggish after I updated. I did a hard reset twice and the speed was noticeably better. Try that if you haven't already.

    Good to see most are having a better experience.

    Limited testing here but, whilst the browser is slower to update pages (slowly growing blue line at the top) and I see quite a few checkerboards, it does seem to be a lot more stable.

    I can cope with a slower browser (though faster would be nice ), stability was always the big issue for me.

    One crash, since the update.

    Well, it has been roughly about a week since an update and I have yet come across one single crash. Perhaps I have been lucky thus far.

    In addition, I am glad that some website such as AA.com works a lot better now. It was crawling and useless to browse or book my flight using my PB.

    HBOGO and EPSN Live via PB browser both work very well now. I was even able to watch a few Game of Throne episodes using my 9810 Hotspot Mobile feature.

    I am still disappointing that predictive text does no longer function when I use bridge e-mail and bride BBM! This is very annoying! I tried to reboot my PB a few times already.

    Rock steady since the update. No crashes. Since moving to 2.0.1 I have had 2 graphic intensive pages render slowly. The browser did eventually render them after about 1 minute. Very happy with the native browsers stability.
