    I had seen some expressions android apps on playbook. All of them are not correct then.(There are a lot of videos on websites about android apps on playbook.)
    I wish I could use skype on playbook.
    Is there anyone can watch movies with subtitle?

    These answers were not good for me... Pffff

    Your list sounds like you made it from doing research and asking about things you know aren't possible yet.

    But to humor you.

    1. Only android apps from app world or the one you can sideload but not all work and limited to 2.3.3 or something like that.

    2. If you've read anything at all you wouldn't need to ask. Some members say skype compatibility will be coming in the native video chat but no proof yet.

    3. What altoronto said.

    4. Somewhat but only using wifi drives.

    5. Yes you can read some document like pdf or something.

    6. There is an app that does subtitles. I don't need it so you can search to find what it is if you really want to know.

    7. Yes.

    Hope that helps.
