    i too agree, but it while a lot of users have remorse and the unit is yet refined.

    once they make the improvements needed, people will not be so reluctant to get rid of them.

    Dude, pretty much all of us are going to recommend you buy it. You'll just have to decide yourself if you can afford it. By next year at this time, you'll know for sure if the Playbook is a good buy, but by then there will be new models, new iPads, new tablets promised for late 2012. If you keep on waiting, you never get anything.

    I bought a TI-59 programmable calculator when I was 19 in 1980 for $1000 (with the printer!). It would be a nice doorstop now if I had any idea where it was. The point is that technology goes obsolete, and that those who wait never get to play.

    Enjoy.

    You'll probably be able to pick it up for $299 or less by the time November rolls around.

    The OP's signature states he owns a Torch. So that must mean he should pull the trigger because he won't regret it!

    Buy the Playbook! I use the heck out of my Playbook for work and for play. I think I made a great purchase and it keeps getting better and better. I've had mine since launch day.

    Yeah, besides, I've given up a long time ago on taking advice from people who can't spell properly. It's 2011, even if you can't spell you have so many systems in place to help you!

    Yeah, I'm going to buy it today hopefully, I can't wait to have it; my 9800 needs a friend of his own kind to hang out with.

    Thank everyone!

    I think prices may go back up once Android Player, native PIM and more cool games arrive. I might be wrong but I wouldn't be surprised if that happens. Right now the PB isn't really a compelling offer to a lot of people but with all that stuff available it will be.
