Yes, this is one big drawback.

this is probably the gayest thing ever

i dont want to convert all my movie files just so that they will work on the playbook.
(i move my files to my touchpad from computer and everything works perfectly fine)

hoping someone comes up with a better video player for the playbook soon(or add some new codecs and shit to the exsisting player)


from someone that owns both a touchpad and a playbook

the touchpad has awesome 10" screen for viewing movies,browsing but asides from the wifi it lacks internet-tethering from blackberrys(i think androids and iphones have no problem tethering to touchpad)

and it feels like it weighs more then a brick or two


the playbook is awesome in size and portability,screen is preety sharp and crisp and the blackberry bridge is AWESOME for those that own a blackberry and would like internet on the go

however their power button,media player,OS ,no emails

are reasons why i think makes it shitty

i also hate the fact that i ALWAYS open up popups/spam by mistake while browsing on the pb ( the touchpad popup blocker apps are preety good)

overall

i still like my playbook better simply because its like 1/3 the size/weight of the touchpad and with the recent price drop

playbook<touchpad
