I'd like to introduce my next app "Send to PC". It's aim is to make it as quick and easy to send a file from your PlayBook to your PC, and even open a Windows Explorer window on your PC with that file selected so that you don't have to go browsing for it.
Handy for sending a photo, a video, a document, etc.

If you give it a try, reply to this thread and let me know what you think!
Can you explain what communication channel(s) it uses to make the transfer? Is it a direct connection over BT or Wifi between the PB and PC, or is it like the way Print To Go works, where you transfer the file through an intermediary server run by someone else -- in this case, you?

There's a tiny app that runs on your PC that allows your PlayBook to upload the file, and the Windows app takes care of the Windows Explorer interaction.

I have tried that, but it won't work for me, neither by usb or wifi, one of the reasons it's because it asks for a password. Have tried several none work and it won't let me change it either.....sigh
Sounds like a good idea but please release in the UK
Someone was earlier saying I should release it in Mexico. I'm confused because it should be available globally. I just released it a couple of hours ago, so perhaps it hasn't propagated through the system yet.
Try searching for "Send to PC" on your PlayBook, someone suggested that might work.
