^When did it start? I got mine on October 20th. I'm going back to price adjust on Friday as well. Do you think I would be able to get the $150 worth of accessories as well?

All companies usually pm , or else you can easily return the product and go to another retailer and make them lose the sale.

I believe it's been talked about a lot on RFD, best of luck sifting through 100+ pages of replies though. The $150 free accessories deal was for the fullprice unit. The new pricedrop apparently does not include these things so the short answer is no you won't be getting them.

blackberrys were terrible at everything other than being a phone and having a keyboard. this thing fails on both those levels.

If this was a device that just works.. it would be selling like hotcakes and not require constant price drops. The hardware and build is great such that Amazon is using the same oem design. Wonder when it'll hit $99

Have you actually used the Playbook?

Tablets will never be notebook replacements - they're really just expensive browsers and media players. In these areas, the Playbook is good - I would say pretty good.

I like the PB but I would have never paid 500 for it. At $500, I would have expected it to do a lot more which is why I bought one at $300.

I think anything Blackberry has a bad stigma so the market won't buy it.

That is probably one of the reasons people are avoiding the playbook or anything that is coming out of RIM right now.

Honestly the Playbook is under estimated , much research will tell you that.

I just want something that's portable, plays movies, and has surfing capabilities. I can really care less about apps and all that other stuff as it's strictly a toy that I want to use for travelling, when the gf is using the computer etc. I think this will do just fine for me.

It doesn't run all of them and it has to run it inside another app. Now if they could hack Cyanogen onto it I'd buy one lol.

It doesn't run inside another app. Android developers port it directly into app world and it would look like any other BlackBerry app.
