What you're talking about are the interfaces on top of the underlying kernel, which is the part that people interact with. It would be easy for RIM to make the interface as slick and functional as WebOS. HP could never make the kernel of WebOS as good as QNX.

It's been out for 12 hours, how much actual experience do you have with the Playbook, exactly ?
Yes, nothing compares to the Playbook because it runs QNX. Everyone else should stop making tablets because the Playbook runs QNX which is the greatest thing ever. Let's just completely disregard all of its many flaws because it runs QNX. We'll just completely ignore that our first demo unit stopped displaying half the screen on the first day until a reboot and that we had one returned within 3 hours of launch with it stuck on bootup ... because it runs QNX, OS of champions. Want to edit the photos you've taken ? Nope, can't do that, but it's QNX, so it's okay. Want to edit your videos ? Want to take a picture in portrait and be able to view it fullscreen ? Ha, what are you retarded or something ? You obviously can't do that, but it runs QNX, so it's okay. Want to use your POP or IMAP e-mail ? Good luck without a Blackberry phone, but it has QNX, so that's okay. Want to play Netflix on your HDTV ? At least it has QNX, though, right ? Want to have 40 separate browser pages open just for shits and giggles ? Well, you could do that on a Palm Pre w/ 256MB of RAM, but the almighty QNX can't do it with 1GB. Want to do anything most people would want to do ? Too bad, but at least it has a technically superior OS, even though you can do absolutely fuck all with it at the moment.
All hail QNX, new OS champion for the last 12 hours ...
I don't need a lesson about QNX and I certainly don't need 5 lessons saying the same thing I already knew before you even said anything in this thread.
QNX needs updates and apps or it's going to get left in the dust ...
