PB's gone for good in Canada?
Well now that every retailer in Ontario at least is completly sold out - do you think we will see more available while this sale is on?
A couple Walmarts i talked to said they are not getting anymore and Future Shop does not know when or if they will. Most websites say 'sold out' which could mean that's it forever!! I mean it just all seems so final.

They had the PlayBook being able to use a BlackBerry handset as a input tool!!! (BIGGEST FEATURE for me hello awesome keyboard)
They had spellcheck Word Substitution included
this makes sense and was the main reason I got a 9930 vs all touch.

Funny Best Buy PlayBook Story...

Others mentioned that the 64GB is not going to be carried any more.
I'd jump on the 64GB if I can find it >$300, but even at $400 i'm debating.
I was in Best Buy just now, buying a case for my new Playbook. I was trying to decide and the very nice store assistant who helped me apologized for not having any playbooks for me to actually test the cases with. "No worries, I said, I got mine on Friday." He seemed quite relieved then said "Oh, so you saw the crazieness here here (at Best Buy) on Friday?" Me: "No - I got my 64G at Staples on Friday, why, what craziness?"
He said it was absolutely nuts on Friday for the Playbook. Adults were almost fighting each other (acting like kids was how he described it) and they had to threaten to stop serving them if they didn't calm down. He said the Playbooks just flew off the shelves and he'd never seen anything like it.
Anyway, as we were talking a gentleman came up and asked if they had a Playbook in stock, he wanted the 64G... the assistant said they were out, but that they were expecting more stock on Wednesday so maybe there's hope.
I was so relieved I got mine last week from Staples. I heard some Staples still have some but not sure.
