- I've already accepted we won't see much improvement with the PB until BB10. That's just how it rolls. However in this Beta rate offering in software terms performs as well as it does, one doesn't have to look far to see what's coming.10-14-12 11:10 AMLike 0

- This imo is one of those rare threads that you can actually learn something from a lot of big brains here and I mean that as the highest complement I didn't have high expectations for this thread but it has certainly surpassed being just a good thread.
I JUST SEE IT AS NO NEED TO BE A HATER BLACKBERRY ANDROID OR APPLE AS LONG AS IT WORKS FOR THE INDIVIDUAL.
I've made jokes about other platforms in good nature but I've learned so much from so many on these boards its opened up my mind to trying out other platforms and I think that this thread is a great example a little cantankerous at times but for the most part very civil and that I like.
So I would like to thank all who participated in this thread just for keeping it real and keeping it civil for the most part.
GREAT THREAD PEOPLE:-)10-14-12 01:03 PMLike 0 - Shall we make it a wager then? If I successfully demonstrate your 30 point scenario without encountering the problems that you claim are inevitable, will you change your signature to text of my choice?10-14-12 01:08 PMLike 0

If you are confident about your claims, post a video doing the same scenario (that YOU put together, mind you) on the PB. Then the interested parties, of which there are a few in this thread, can make up their own minds.
The fact that you don't even want to make a "just for fun" wager means you have little confidence in your claims.mikeo007 likes this.10-14-12 02:37 PMLike 1 - Wrong. This is to DISPROVE a claim you made about the limitations of Android. The objective is to simply to show the truth.

Bottom Line: You made a claim about Android and now you need to back it up. The fact that you're still dancing around the subject instead of posting your "proof" just makes you look even more like a fanboy troll.

The PB's ability to handle the workload I described was never in question, and your attempt to change the subject by turning it into some kind of wager is simply to distract from your original post.

If you are so sure I am a troll (an obvious one) then there's no risk in making a wager right? Actually I am questioning the the productivity of PB vs Android in the workload that you described. Wouldn't it be great to have both videos so we can debate based on evidence and not empty words?esk369 likes this.10-14-12 02:58 PMLike 1 - dude...the Super "BLACKBERRY PLAYBOOK TABLET" its a Great Tool for Multitasking and Everything else...
With the new update 2.1, works wonders the Smartphone BB Bridge.
You can do MANY activities with the PlayBook, of course, If you have enough knowledge about Mobile PC's.
I love my Smartphone BB Storm2 and my BB Playbook. They are a great pair of tech.10-14-12 03:03 PMLike 0 - diegoneiRetired Mod & AmbassadorI hope the video shows plain vanilla Android, and not some 3rd party stuff (device manufacturers INCLUDED).
Apps, widgets and customizations do not count.
If it is not possible to replicate over the whole platform, it can't be counted as a feature from the OS. It would be even better you could show it on devices running 2.x, but I'll accept vanilla 4.x as proof.10-14-12 03:17 PMLike 0 - [QUOTE=rkennedy01;7677409]No, it means I'm not going to waste any more time debating an obvious troll.

If you want to decline then decline whatever your reason for what its worth I wouldn't think any less of you.
No need to resort to this if the poster is a troll in your opinion then thats fine let everyone judge for themselves .
I would still love to see the comparison.10-14-12 03:19 PMLike 0 - I hope the video shows plain vanilla Android, and not some 3rd party stuff (device manufacturers INCLUDED).

BB10 phones *might* have some reasonable limitations on the multi-tasking. I guess the dev alphas have a limit to 8 apps running at once, etc.
And yet the base core of the OS below would still be similar to the PlayBook. So when the hardware allows and there are no worries about battery life; RIM can open things up easily. For example, if they start growing again and release revised tablets with BB10.10-14-12 03:36 PMLike 0 - You can draw your own conclusions. It's perfectly valid in my eyes. Calling difference of opinion a "fault" is rather petty. Sounds like a defence mechanism to defend the infallible Playbook.10-14-12 03:41 PMLike 0

I'm using a Galaxy SIII in the video so it's not plain vanilla. There's no reason for me to root the device. In the video, I am not using any add-ons that Samsung included. Everything I do in the video should be replicable on Honeycomb and higher devices. The upload is very very slow, maybe I picked too high a resolution, but part 2 of the video should be ready in 10 minutes.esk369 likes this.10-14-12 03:48 PMLike 1 - diegoneiRetired Mod & AmbassadorNo apps, widgets, or customizations? Apps were stipulated in RKENNEDY's scenario. Widgets and customizations? I'm not using them.

The issue is Android. And Android means vanilla. EDIT: So, no dual screen? Or can all Android devices do that?
What release does it use as base? 4.something? (Simple curiosity)esk369 likes this.10-14-12 03:54 PMLike 1
