So - one of the things I was excited about in this update was the ability to access my media files from my PB on my Torch 9800. I have run all updates as of this am and BBM is working fine on my PB - I haven't had a chance to try Video chat.. jealous of all of you who have!

While using BBM on playbook and I can access and attach files from my Torch - however, i can't access any media files other than pdf?

Anyone else? Any suggestions?

RIM - keep up the good work, I am enjoying the product so far!

Yea...same issue...I really want to have access to all my flies on my 9800 through the bridge. As far as I am concerned this should be at the top of the list for what needs to be fixed first.

Attaching pictures in BBM is pretty tough without preview icons (unless I'm missing something) ...

In the Bridge file manager, I can open pdfs, docs, xls, ppt (so Adobe and MS Office files). But not pictures and videos. Still a work in progress!

Some day I'll be able to take a picture on my phone and access it immediately on the PB! Not yet though ...

so whats rhe deal with this? i jusr bought my pb and thought this kind of feature was a done deal but much to my surprise, not at all.

its in the pipes right?

I thought I read this would be working after the last os update I guess not.

It is supposed to be fixed in a coming OS upgrade. One temporary work-around is an app called "Photo TouchUp". You can access any picture that is on your blackberry phone and edit / save it on Playbook using this app.
