Mom and Dad think the PlayBook is a bad purchase
- If your mom buys one, she'll be calling wanting to setup video chat. You'll know long before you go to visit. Least I would hope she would want to video chat with you.04-30-12 07:55 PMLike 0
- I've been running the PB (2 of em), ipad 2 & 3 and Galaxy Tab 8.9 in parallel in a work environment for the last 12 months. On the PB I cannot have more than one Word doc open at a time (or more than one PPT or more than one XLS), there is no OneNote integration, no decent digital signature for documents, no virtual MS Office cloud environment. I run a VNC to a desktop but its painful on the PB screen for me. Try red teaming a tech proposal on a PB. I'd love a 9" or 10" PB for my requirements.
The PB for me is more of a PTD - Personal Tablet Device- like a PDA. I use it all the time when I want access to everything, but not to work on everything. Bridge to the 9900 is terrific for anywhere, anytime connectivity. Tho the PB is kinda redundant when you have a 9900. Those so quick to to cut the ipad, your ignorance is showing. I would agree with you if you were right. Once I let down my unfounded prejudice, I learned a lot. I'm still platform/OS agnostic. I use what works for my business needs.

We are like the Linux users from then, got a OS that doesn't blue screen but will never become the mainstream.05-01-12 08:07 AMLike 0
