To Windows 8 tablets. This really gets me mad because the tablets are not even out yet. What makes all other OS's so special that main stream apps can't be released to the Playbook?

It helps that Microsoft has their OSes on around 95% of the world's computers......

Bear in mind that Win RT is only launching with about 3,500 apps. Granted, they seem to be landing all the big names, but I honestly question how successful RT will be, once users take them home and find out that they won't run full-blown Windows apps.

If the 32GB Surface was selling for $199 as rumored, or even $299, I could see it, but I think MS will have to discount heavily before consumers are going to pay much attention.

From what I keep reading on these boards, all they need is Hulu, or Netflix, or Skype and Angry Birds . . .
Just sayin'

Hulu Plus has already been available for Xbox for over a year, so it is not surprising that another Microsoft product is getting it.

Face facts,,,,BB is considered a niche market at best by many of the "big players".... so why bother..... also remember it is not that you cannot use Hulu on the Playbook throught the web... it is Hulu does not allow it... I know you could watch Hulu on the Playbook when it first came out....then Hulu blocked it...
