Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Ooooo.  I'll have to convince my boss I need one of those.
But, then again, our BB devices here at work are so locked down you can't do anything fun with them anyway..

I've got an unlimited data plan with my BB...and it sounds like I can just use the BBs plan in conjunction with the PB.

I think the screen is too small should be at least the size of a Ipad

Neat.  Powered Brakes.   I have Need for Speed on my iPad.  I can't play it in a minimized mode like on the PB.

I've held out for the Playbook.  I really like Blackberries.

I prefer this smaller screen size to the iPad's.

However, I will wait until the initial bugs are ironed out.  They may not be any significant bugs, but I've been burned once getting something that just came out and ended up being a lemon.  (A top of the line HP Elitebook, whereas I never had any problems with other HP models before, which were models that had been on the market for a while.  It's still covered under warranty, but it's tiresome to spend hours on the phone with tech support and to have to keep sending it back in for repairs).

I want a bigger screen on the iPad so coukdnt live with smaller.  But the iPad size is nit too bad, rarely is it too small.

I'm hoping for the same.  I'm with Bell Mobility.  You must have a grandfathered plan, too?

I was able to transfer over the plan after a consulting assignment that had me using the phone a lot...and the company got a special deal from Rogers.

That's awesome.  Unlimited data plans have gone the way of the dino...at least for now.  I expect that there shouldn't be any issues with my PlayBook and my own BB's unlimited data plan because technically it's not tethering, it's sharing.  Although there's been some debate on the subject on some of the online forums, including at www.crackberry.com

PB - PlayBoy (mag)?  8)

That Coby Tab is under $200, no 3G, but with WiFi, well worth the money.

I agree it looks that way, but when you play with some of these devices like I did at CES you are underwhelmed by the experience.
