- Here are some interesting looking PlayBook applications I was able to come across earlier today.
HyperBible ( HyperBible Application ) BlackBerry PlayBook Bible App
Pocket Portrait Lighting ( Pocket Portrait Lighting ) An app for photographers
NetFlix Queue Manager ( NetFlix Queue Manager ) An app that lets you manage your NetFlix selections
Finance Assistant ( Finance Assistant (Application) ) PlayBook™ application that
provides popular financial functions.
What do you guys think are missing with a some of the apps currently being approved/released on AppWorld? What would you like to see in future apps? (graphic-intensive, complexity,????)
Feel free to share anything you have about current PB apps, games...!!!02-05-11 03:22 AMLike 0 - 02-05-11 03:39 AMLike 0
- Would like to see "enterprise" apps. Oracle, SQLServer, SYBASE clients (of course you can't do those). Remote connection/administration to Windows and Unix workstations and Servers (ya know we have to, cmon, telnet, ftp, RDP, SMS, MTP). And seeing it's that time of the year here in the US, how about TURBOTAX!!!!!!02-05-11 08:59 AMLike 0

- I totally agree with you, I'm hoping some of the developers currently making apps for the PB will take notice of this and come up with something.02-05-11 12:52 PMLike 0
- i am sure there will be a kindle app atleast. Maybe even nook. There are several in the android market already that can be ported over easily i would think it that dev took the time to do it.02-05-11 12:56 PMLike 0

- True, and since there was talks about the PlayBook being able to Run Android apps. Chances are users will be able to take advantage of what Google has to offer with their online book store. I can't list any benefits yet but I'm sure there will be plenty from a user's standpoint.02-05-11 01:00 PMLike 0
- I'm not sure if the Bible text can be maximized to full screen. I have sent an email to the developer asking him to tell me more about the application. As soon as I hear back from him I will share the information with you. You can also post the question in the HyperBible thread incase the developer passes through there.02-05-11 01:08 PMLike 0
- I'm looking forward to the main travel apps (Worldmate and Tripit etc.) being available.
Also I would love a simple app to make simple lists on, I keep a to do list on a paper notebook, I would love to have it in the playbook. The few apps I've seen for other platforms are to complex and an issue to use, just a simple list.02-05-11 01:16 PMLike 0 -
EDIT: Can you get the network to work in the vmware player? I can't and sound is ok, but the typing clicks go in and out, though this is beta so I assume some bugs.Last edited by sandmanfvr; 02-05-11 at 01:46 PM.

The simulator is nice to "handle" the os now and then see apps running would be good, if this can be done.

As far as TurboTax I think there's an iPhone/iPad app for it. I doubt we'll see it this year but next year I think they would have one available02-05-11 02:38 PMLike 0 -

That app was not designed for the PlayBook Tablet OS, so even if you get it on the PlayBook the device won't know how to execute it. But if you can get someone to port it to the Playbook you may be able to use it on your device.02-05-11 02:48 PMLike 0 - official skype app should come i would think. just have to give them time. The version they are working on for android/honeycomb is not quite ready yet either from what i understand.02-05-11 03:05 PMLike 0
