playing around with my gf playbook right now. after i got over the initial thriill of playing with a new os i find this to be disappointing the screen is awesome but the lack of many useful native apps is a turn off.... i also find the browser scrolling to be a but weird. i always manage to accidentally click a link or an image while scrolling down or for it to just behave really weird on certain websites. the keyboard is great though, very responsive and i like how you can use ctrl c v b etc command with a bluetooth keyboard. the only thing im jelly about since my touchpad cant do this....

im trying to get andorid apk running on this thing but so far its been a headache since i use mac and its a really old mac that doednt ran vmware that well...

i still think my 32gb touhpad even at 250 is a better deal.

EDIT: scratch that once i have access to a windows computer transfering bat files to the playbook is relatively painless however turning the apk into bat is still a pita. all that effort is waste when i found out out of the 3 apps installed (ezpdf, mobo play and android task killer) only the task killer work 100%. =\

also is there any file manager for this thing?
