i might be in the market for a tablet so i'm curious
well for speed,screen size i think touchpad wins

for camera the playbook wins

also the playbook is almost half the weight as the touchpad

HP TouchPad – 240 x 189 x 14 mm (740g)
BlackBerry PlayBook – 194 x 130 x 10mm (425g)

resolution wise
HP TouchPad – 9.7-inch (768 x 1024 pixels) display
BlackBerry PlayBook – 7-inch (1024 x 600 pixels) display


webos is preety good to compared to playbook but that might change once the new update for playbook comes out


i want to tether internet from my blackberry to my touchpad(which right now has no apps or option available right now)


apparently you cant use AD-HOC for touchpads (this is the method i used to connect/tether my ipod touch to my blackberry)


i want to watch movies+browse shit on the internet thats my 2 main things


with the blackberry playbook it gives you 2 options

blackberry bridge ( which connects ur playbook to ur blackberry for bbm n shit like that)

and internet tether ( which lets you connect/tether internet from ur bb device to ur playbook)

sooo yeah lol
