As far as I know, 32GBs are gone practically everywhere now too once the 16GBs were all gone first. Most places seem to have the 64GB units though.
Anyone have quality control issues with theirs (stuck/dead pixels, not charging, etc)?

i got my blackberry messenger working through bridge now. If anyone can't get it working update your blackberry messenger on your phone to the latest version and accept the agreement, and update the playbook to the latest version as well and it should start working.

First one I bought had a black dot underneath the screen, not a dead pixel. Second one has a few stuck pixels, doesn't charge past 26%, loose charging port, wifi cycles. Ugh. This is the 32GB. I always seem to have problems when buying something with a screen. Either that or horrible QC by RIM.
Some Chapters still seem to have some 16GB units left, based on their inventory check.

no problems what so ever, loving everything about it, learning how to use it more and more daily and optimising it to my liking...
Nobex Radio is my new favorite app. one more thing i love the size of it. i use it mostly vertically because then i can type on the keypad exactly how i did on my iphone. fits perfectly in my hand without straining it like the iphone keypad did.

The US is following suit Best Buy USA follows suit, drops BlackBerry PlayBook pricing | CrackBerry.com 
For those of you who purchased one already, anyone notice if their playbook doesn't lie flat? Mine has a bulge around the logo and slides/pivots on it when I type. When doing the swipe gestures, it literally rotates my playbook. Very frustrating, however I was able to get an authorization for an RMA for this issue and RIM is sending over a new 16 GB to me! 
It will be shipped to me within 2 business days and I have 10 days to send back the old one. Otherwise, bringing it back to the store will get you no where as they're all out of stock.
So if anyone has the same problem, or any other issues for that matter call playbook support, they're 24/7! PlayBook Support - Contact Support | |
