Playbook is quite the machine!I bought mine today at the local Staples store and I am very, VERY happy with it!
I have used an iPad2 and I am much much more happier with the Playbook. Web browsing is faster, rendering is faster, everything is faster and it is also a lot more intuitive.
In my view this is a real winner.
And to those who think RIM should chase the consumer crowd should get checked in. If they did that they would get squashed by their competition...they are smart, they know their loyal support base and that is what they target.
GOOD JOB RIM...GREAT PRODUCT!
