I feel genuine sorrow for folks visiting the playbook forums for the first time

Not a chance. Besides, I hid it and with my memory, you don't stand a chance. What was the question?

Oh my heck I want to roll all you guys in duct tape and stack you on the back porch like firewood. Pay no nevermind to these guys, OP.
Back to the question...there are so many ways to use the PB only you can decide. I love my Z10, but HDMI, Remote and bigger screen still makes the PB better at some things. All depends on how you use it. There have been several threads on this topic. You might take a look.

The browser it not good (I saw Kyle27's BB10 version which looked ridiculously smooth but that doesn't help me).

Someone give me some hope for keeping this thing!

Turn off Java, that helps a ton. Turn it on when needed. Huge difference. Or as others have mentioned get Fast Browser. This is actually my only real bugger, but I do the aforementioned and Its fine. The PlayBook is a beast though. I haven't rebooted it for months. As much daily multitasking I do on it; no crashes. I rarely touch the other tablets. I never was a huge gamer, but on this sucker I have about 32 at the moment. Really nice gaming experience. Also great HTPC, especially with apps like StreamingNow and bridge remote function. Hope it works out for you!

Could I request cling film please? I don't mind lying on your back porch but duck tape brings me out in a terrible rash. I think I have sensitive skin.

In all honesty, I see no difference between fast browser and the native browser with both java and flash off.

I was just watching Twin Peaks Fire Walk with Me. Cling/seran it is - much more macabre.

Just got the chance to check this post for the first time in a few days....I really appreciate the advice on my browser issues, I did purchase Fast browser and my white and gray box days are over when scrolling.

If you notice in fast browser you can set different user agents: Playbook, Chromee, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari, and BB10!! What does that mean ? Do we now have at least a part of the BB10 browser on the Playbook.

No, it probably just means that Fast Browser is fudging its identify and telling sites it is bb10. Just as it can say it is Firefox or IE.

Stupid cat.
There are other options like User Agent selection, this helps with sites that want to see a certain browser, and Ad Blocking.
I set up Fast Browser to work the way I like then I have the standard browser if I need Java.
