I am getting very frustrated trying to connect my Q10 with my PlayBook. Doesn't give me all the options available.

Only bbm and text available for 10

Q10 with Telus on 10.3.0.296

Hi aside from remote control for the black berry bridges with my z10 what else awesome features does it have?

BBM and SMS, open on tablet (music, video (I think), files, photos, websites), remote control, Internet for PlayBook browser, and file system access to BlackBerry 10 device from PlayBook.

I think some of that is only with OS 10.3 installed on the phone.

Can black berry bridges exist if my PlayBook and z10 are far from each other? is there any setting for that? Can I still browse thru Internet

How far is far? Mine works the distance of my house and even on the back deck.
I'm not on 10.3, but have just about all the features I had when ai was using a 9900 except the ability to mirror the phone on the Playbook with an additional app. I miss that particular feature, but am satisfied with the rest available.

All of that works with 10.2.1.

I also forgot that you can answer or ignore phone calls from the PlayBook. If you answer, if turns on the speakerphone on the phone.

Thanks a lot I'll try! I was just busy at work that's why I couldn't surf on my PlayBook thru your help I can just play on it

I have to admit, I didn't realize that the playbook would "tether" to my Z10 for internet access... I use the PB to listen to music and to look up stuff on the web while I am working in the lab, and my phone is normally within 15 or 20 feet so within range - so I never noticed that it would allow me on the web through the phone.

I don't have a tethering option with my service provider (because ATT is a ****) so I was really surprised the other day when I went to eat, at this little restaurant, reading the news on my PB, and I realized I hadn't logged in to any place - so I looked on the WIFI settings, not connected to any except the phone. Sweet!

I do wish they would not have EOL'd this thing... it's pretty darned amazing, and holds up well to the cheap tablets out there now.
