Desert Suite; ...For Monica. Rest, Young Soul... April 13 2020.
Love, prayers and support for our friend Sergio and his family. This epic tragedy, 2 adolescent children left motherless due to complications of the WuHan Flu* COVID19.
I am heart broken and feel incredibly helpless; I offer this little piece of music of my Heart - that we all may take these 5 minutes, meditate and reflect of the lives and generations impacted in these brutally challenging times for all humanity.

The Livestream (BBM)
Okay, I’ll admit that this isn’t the most original idea. I forget who does all of the BVA prompts (is it @illskarsgard?), but I wanted to do my own take on the idea with my own three guys. This is Bill Skarsgard, Bryan Dechart, and Matthew Gray Gubler. I hope you guys like this soft, fluffy fic. I will be posting it here because I’m not doing all that tagging on Ao3. Also, if you want a great version of this song to listen to while you read... Click Here!

@sorryimviolet @bill-istvan
Let me know if you’d like to be added or removed!
It was a rare occasion when they were all gone, but when those days inevitably came, you found yourself with an empty hole in your heart that crushed you. The first one to leave was Bill. He was so highly sought-after that it made it difficult to pin him down in the first place. He hadn't told you much. He had mentioned that Andy Muschietti had another film brewing that he needed to be a part of, no if's, and's, or but's. Then it was Matthew. He had gone to visit his mother in Vegas. It was a trip he took often. You knew that he would be back soon, but you still felt that empty loneliness in your soul without him. His personality was so childish, affectionate, and ever so slightly spooky that it could be addictive at times. The last one to leave was Bryan. He had a convention to attend. He was still riding the high off of his portrayal of the Android, Connor, in Detroit: Become Human. He'd offered to bring you, but the last time you went anywhere with any of the boys, paparazzi had to snap pictures. The first time you were on the cover of The National Enquirer, you cried for a month. Rumors had spread about your unorthodox relationship. People like Perez Hilton were calling you a slut on live television. You couldn't do a thing without someone blogging about it. You were happy that you still had a group of fans that supported your art. Your band wasn't as successful as most, but that was okay. Every day you did an Instagram Live event. You would thank everyone for their support and sing a song or two. It made you happy to see all of the comments from fans. So, with a quick application of makeup (you didn't dare risk people taking screenshots of your makeup-less face), you pushed the button on your phone and went live. You smiled as your fans trickled into the live stream, "Hi everyone!" You waved. Hearts began to ascend the side of the screen along with comments. "I love you!" Many wrote. "Hi, mom!" A few teens jokingly wrote. "Come to Brazil!" You saw a couple of times. You couldn't help but smile more genuinely at the warmth flooding in. You made your way out of the bathroom, cautiously. "Sorry, I just did my makeup, so I'm still in the bathroom." You chuckled. As you moved into your bedroom, you sat on your bed and continued to read comments, thanking your fans for being so kind and supporting you. You brushed off the negative comments that came through. You were good at that, thank goodness. "Where are your boys?" A couple of fans asked. You giggled at your nickname for them. "The boys? Oh, they're just busy." Your complex relationship was common knowledge, but you didn't like going too deeply into it. "Did you guys want to sing today?" A flood of yesses and hearts gave you an affirmative answer. "Let me put on Spotify and see if we can find something fun. What are we in the mood for today? Pop? Rock?" You skimmed through your playlist of instrumentals before finally settling on one that made your heart momentarily skip: Let Her Go by Passenger. The lyrics cycled through your head and instantly burned into that hole in your chest. You knew this had to be the song of the day. "Okay, I've got one." You said, smile fading. You cleared your throat and got serious.
Well you only need the light when it's burning low Only miss the sun when it starts to snow Only know you love her when you let her go
Your eyes closed, and you paused.
"Are you okay, mom?" "Are you crying?" "No, don't cry!" Comments of all kinds flooded in. You weren't crying, but you were sad. You missed your boys. You missed the way they held you close and sang songs with you. You missed the feeling of Matthew's stubble as he kissed your cheek. You missed the way Bryan looked at you with such intense love in his eyes. You missed the way Bill teased and joked with you as a best friend should. You smiled weakly.
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low Only hate the road when you're missing home Only know you love her when you let her go And you let her go
You continued, not knowing that someone had crept in the door downstairs. As the gentle melody echoed through the house, the intruder paused to listen. Your voice was enchanting; like an angel. He took the steps slowly, one foot in front of the other as he gripped the railing. He didn't want to alarm you. No, that was the last thing he wanted. When he approached your room, he was relieved to find the door already open. That was less of an opportunity for noise. You had made it through a large chunk of the song by that time, entering into a sort of trance. Singing enraptured your soul. You closed your eyes as you sang, unaware of the man who was creeping up behind you.
Well, you only need the light when it's burning low Only miss the sun when it starts to snow Only know you love her when you let her go Only know you've been high when you're feeling low Only hate the road when you're missing home Only know you love her when you let her go
You heard a tiny rustling of what sounded like plastic, causing you to start. Your eyes caught a lovely pink-tinged plastic. It was a bouquet. The man who held the bouquet? Your love, Bill. You smiled and jumped up from your seated position, embracing him. It was all caught on camera for the stream to see. You covered him in red kisses as he laughed. "Are you live right now?" He asked. You didn't answer him. You held him close to you, listening to his heartbeat. "I missed you so much." You whispered. "I was gone two days!" He teased, "I wasn't filming, I just had to go talk to..." He glanced at your phone, not wanting to give any insider information, "Anyway, I'm here." "Do you want to finish my video with me?" You asked, knowing he wasn't one for impromptu camera appearances. "Sötis, I'm really tired. I just got off a flight." He ran a hand through your hair as you frowned. "Okay. I'll make you some tea. Just give me a minute, yeah?" You straightened the lapels of his jacket, giving him a quick smile. He sighed in agreement, giving a quick wave to the camera before heading off down the stairs.
"You two are so cute!" "I stan so hard!" "He's so hot wtf!"
You laughed at the comments that poured in as you approached the phone. The music had moved onto a different song, so you paused it. "Okay, guys. I've got a sleepy baby to take care of. You know how it is. Maybe I'll get on later, but I have to go. I'm sorry!" You held your hands in front of you as if in silent prayer, bidding your stream attendees "I'm sorry" and "Goodbye." You turned off the stream, a feeling of calm washing over you. You meant it when you said you were going to make Bill some tea. You hadn't intended on making some for yourself, but you changed your mind. You slowly tip-toed down the stairs, hearing whispering as you crept. "Bill?" You called out, causing an immediate silence. You walked into the kitchen to see both Matthew and Bryan waiting for you, joining Bill with smiles. You ran to embrace them all. "What is all of this?" You asked, almost crying at the sight of the three men you loved more than life itself. "We just wanted to surprise you." Bryan offered, moving a gentle hand to the back of your neck. "That, and my flight got canceled." Matthew laughed, "But you know, maybe this is where we're all supposed to be right now." You embraced them all tightly, not wanting to let them go. Your agreement was silent but very, very loud.

1 hit song “Bad Guy.”Īll in all, Eilish gathered a total of six nods for next year’s awards, tying up with “Old Town Road” hitmaker, Lil Nas X, who also had six nominations. She has been nominated in the Album of the Year category for her genre-bending, and critically acclaimed debut album, “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go.” The teen idol has since amassed more than 15 billion aggregate streams across all platforms like iTunes, Spotify, and Youtube is also nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year categories for her No. This year, Eilish made history to become the youngest artist to be nominated in the four major categories in Grammys. No one- Alicia keys Not the only one- Sam smith Stay with me- Sam smith Am Royals- Lorde Crave you- Flight facilities Emaj Lady Hold back the river Style- Taylor Swift Bbm Yellow- coldplay My hero- Foo fighters Black and gold Am All that she wants- Ace of base Riptide Can’t get you out of my head-Kylie Minogue Bm Love me like you do- Ellie. Since then, Eilish becomes a household name in the music industry, especially after her breakout song “Bad Guy,” which was released in early 2019. The song was written and produced by her brother Finneas, with whom she collaborates on music and live shows. She debuted her first single “Ocean Eyes” in 2016, which was subsequently released on the record labels Darkroom and Interscope Records. She carted a string of hit singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and is supported by more than 39 million followers on the popular social media platform, Instagram. And Billie Eilish, well, she definitely can sing live! Geez, she can handle a duet with Alicia Keys! Eilish wrapped up the song, and the performance warranted massive applause from a studio audience comprised of only women.Īt the age of 17, the teen pop icon acclaimed for her rebellious music and art style has achieved so much in her career since she started making music. Alicia Keys unveils a cover of Billie Eilishs 'Ocean Eyes. The two traded notes and verses, until the final chorus when they joined forces to give the world a harmony we all deserved.Īlicia Keys is a real diva, and she showed the fact once more with a couple of alternative notes and beautiful runs she inserted into the song. As she sat down the piano, she requested for the lighting to be changed to become more “dramatic.” The two started exchanging notes per notes of Eilish’s iconic debut song. Dermatologist-developed clean skincare and wellness brand co-created by Alicia Keys that offers serious skincare and soul-nurturing rituals for the whole self. “I mean, I didn’t bring this thing here for nothing,” Keys joked as she slid behind the keys.

What's the big idea of staying with BBM, well BBM is going to take care of everything, parties included, jet leasing everything, for a clientele of jet setters who will appreciate to have access to these exclusive residences and services for a yearly fee, what’s in it for these client is that the yearly membership gives them access to all these locations and future locations, that they can book online or from an app
We can add Tokyo and Vancouver to that offer, Dubai also
Not to miss on the important corporate segment, all these residences are centrally located, adding Paris and Stockholm and other locations in the future, the aim is to make it that wider network of residences so it’s everywhere really where they can fit in
It’s not a decorative logo it’s a voice enabled device, let’s you do a whole range of domotic applications lights, blinds, music so forth, embedded in the panel, reads your mails from your BBM if you let it
It’s not just a stay it’s a BBM stay
And Rabat of course, now one of the things A& does as an agency is bring business to its locations, which stands true for all the parts of the world where A& agencies can be located
Nothing would make A& in Rabat happier than to experience firsthand BlackBerry Residences beyond its concepts phase, so maybe even it will be the first one that is operational

Jesswar, a proud Fijian rapper and award-winning artist who currently creates on Yugambeh/Kombumerri land, returns with ‘BAD LIKE RIRI’, the new single featuring Erica Banks. The track follows Jesswar’s incredible TROPIXX EP, and Erica Banks’ TikTok-anthem ‘Buss It’. With the track, Jesswar continues the foundation which she’s built her sonic universe, reflecting on her community and experiences, utilising music to tell her story. She’s become known to tackle resilience and resourcefulness, while reflecting the key notion of empowerment. ‘BAD LIKE RIRI’ once again celebrates the strong voices of Jesswar’s community, while suggesting a new state of mind, one that resembles confidence and strength, just like Rihanna. “Rihanna’s power has inspired us all”, explains Jesswar. “When I see her thrive it makes me feel like everything is possible.” Roaring synths combine perfectly a roaring percussion section, creating the perfect trap bed for Jesswar to dominate the track. Sharp verses combine perfectly with her witty chorus. then enters Erica Banks, who holds the tracks energy following Jesswar’s delivery. “We sent Erica a rough demo of the song, she sent her verse back in a day and as soon as I heard it, I knew the song was complete,” continues Jesswar. “It’s wild to collaborate with someone on the other side of the world without meeting properly and somehow they match you creatively.” [via Purple Sneakers]
Bronx rapper DreamDoll is back with some new music, making her official Warner Records debut with her latest single ‘You Know My Body’ featuring Capella Grey. This is the first of likely many to come, with the rising talent vocalizing on the song's chorus, with Dream focusing on the verses. With so much planned for this year, Dream is proving that she's more than just a reality star with a pretty face and a curvy waist. She's also got some crazy bars in her, which she's letting off on this new record, which is perfect for cuffing season. [via HNHH]
Haviah Mighty is back with ‘Coulda Been U,’ a new collaboration with fellow Toronto rapper, Astrokidjay. The bass-heavy tune comes from Haviah Mighty’s forthcoming Stock Exchange mixtape, out on November 12 via Mighty Gang Inc. ‘Coulda Been U’ came out of an Instagram correspondence between Mighty and Astrokidjay that led to a collaboration. Haviah Mighty, Denise De’ion, and Mighty Prynce produced the single. It’s inspired by the new and different types of encounters that I find myself having with people – whether fans, strangers, existing friends – and realizing that some of these peoples’ investments in me weren’t coming from the right place,” Haviah Mighty explains. “Maybe they were excited about perceived income, profile, lifestyle, etc…but not so much about who I am, or what I have to offer. These days, I don’t have time to waste, so I’m getting better at determining early on who/what is worth investing my time into. This song focuses on the fact that I know I’m a prize, so act right, or you’ll miss out.” [via Indie88]
Canadian artist Charmaine has been making a name for herself in the early stages of her career. After dropping the project Hood Avant-Garde back in April, fans have been anticipating some new tracks, and she has done more than satisfy that demand. With each new track, Charmaine shows off her energetic flow, and that is exactly what she does on her latest single called ‘BBM (Bad Bitch Mentality).’ When you look at the title of the song, you can pretty well expect some braggadocios lyrics, and that is exactly what you get as Charmaine does her best to explain what the Bad Bitch Mentality is all about. This song also has a hard-hitting instrumental which fits into the theme of the song. [via HNHH]

The critically acclaimed rising Oakland rap duo Su’Lan (composed of Saunsu and Emahalani) have returned with their first release of 2021 dropping new single ‘Blue Cheese.’ Produced by Drew Banga (Kamaiyah, Duckwrth, Guapdad 4000), the track marks the lead single off their highly anticipated upcoming new project.
Feisty Asian rap queen RAMENGVRL links up with pH-1, one of Korea’s hottest rap stars, for the gritty banger ‘Ain’t No MF’ – out on Asiatic Records via Warner Music. ‘Ain’t No MF’ is a classic RAMENGVRL track, embodying confidence and self-love and delivered with the trailblazer’s self-assured swagger which audiences have grown to love about the Indonesian-born artist. Over a dark and menacing beat fusing East Asian sounds, the acclaimed Forbes 30 Under 30 MC proves her greatness in an authentically humble manner, solidifying just why she is considered one of the most exciting new artists in rap. Speaking about ‘Ain’t No MF’, RAMENGVRL shared: “It’s a feel-good track full of bravado and straight up attitude that is about celebrating yourself. I know music can make you feel like a bad bitch even when you’re feeling down or had a bad day at work, and this song is it. Whoever you are and whatever you do, there ain’t no MF like you.”

Pennsylvania rapper Beanz has been on the rise since appearing as a standout contestant on Netflix's Rhythm and Flow, and she's put out a promising run of singles. Her new album Tables Turn comes out November 5 via AWAL, and we're now sharing the video for its latest single, ‘Wake Me Up When I’m Dreaming.’ As you might expect from a rapper who's collaborated with Benny the Butcher, Beanz brings things back to the '90s/early '00s era of East Coast rap, with a chest-puffed, hard-hitting delivery full of inner-line rhymes and knockout punchlines. Speaking about the song and video, Beanz tells Brooklyn Vegan, "The inspo behind it was following my dreams despite what life throws in my direction. The video gives the impression that I’m actually in a dream while I’m embracing the moment and moving forward to what’s next. The end of the video adds a little humor and a snippet of what’s coming next on my project." Check it out below. [via Brooklyn Vegan]

West Coast producer, rapper and songwriter G.L.A.M drops her arresting new jam ‘START SH!T’. Following a string of releases since her debut album in 2017, this newest self-produced track layers brash, lo-fi sonics over blazing percussive elements, a striking offering with clashing lyrical frankness – as G.L.A.M. marks her territory with commanding vocal delivery. Expertly combining fleeting hypnotic accents with tribal-esque influences, ‘START SH!T’ will be sure to continue the attention around an exciting artist able to craft inventive and tasteful soundscapes that live long after the track ends. Speaking on the track, G.L.A.M. said “The lyrics are pretty blatant, I'm a very chill and non-confrontational person and people tend to misread that as a weakness or an opportunity to be a bully. So, I'm basically saying in this song that I don't have a problem but if you bring me to that energy I will gladly reciprocate"

A BlackBerry tablet seems like an odd purchase in 2017, but I did my homework and knew I wasn’t getting an iPad Air. I was getting this tablet for work – Spreadsheets, Word Docs and hopefully use the Bible app. The price was manageable and I figured that even if it turns out to be obsolete, I can still use it as a music player in our kitchen or something. Well, I was pleasantly surprised by this little tablet. The OS is brilliant. It’s such a joy and ease for multi-tasking. I was able to get my spreadsheets on it immediately and use it to check my messages and keep my calendar. The Bible app works flawlessly. Yes, the tablet is a little slow, but it’s a 2011 tablet, it’s to be expected. Yes, it doesn’t have a huge cache of apps to choose from, but the apps available are quality. I even found some fun games with great graphics. My music is fully loaded and the speakers are fantastic. I even tried taking a few pics and the quality is impressive! It’s not great for social media. Facebook is functional but not great. Instagram and Netflix simply won’t work on this tablet. You can go the Instagram website and at least view pictures, but that’s all. I did manage to get YouTube working with an browser I downloaded from BlackBerry World called “Frost”. Just go to the YouTube web page and it works great. It let me sign in, but I had to re-sign in every time I opened it. But when the videos play on YouTube, you can leave the app and the video keeps playing – very cool! I also have a BlackBerry Passport phone and it lets me sync with it and my Playbook to text and send BBMs. If you’re willing to put in a little work and do some research, you can get some current Android apps working on this thing. I have Evernote, Kindle, and even a version of Google Maps working. Again, do not expect this tablet to be everything the current tablets are, but if you want to spend very little and get a functional tablet that can serve a few purposes well, give this a look. The best things about this Tablet is the multi-tasking feature, the Messaging inbox, the speakers, the quality of the screen and the price. The negatives are a lack of apps and the general slowness. Hope this helps someone!

The Blackberry Playbook Tablet isn’t for those hardcore iPad and Android people. In fact, I would not recommend you buy this tablet if that is the kind of person you are. This tablet is almost like a beginning step into the world of tablets. You get plenty of memory on the tablet for a price lower than any other competitor offer, but there is good reason for that. For one, this tablet is older than these fancy tablets that we see nowadays, so the specs aren’t as hot. There is Bluetooth, but if you have an iPhone or Android or just anything that isn’t a Blackberry, your phone is not going to interact with this tablet other than giving it data. It CAN’T support file sharing like pictures or music through Bluetooth, but you can plug it into your computer to upload files onto it. Apps are not exact the strong suite of the Playbook either. It has a more limited version of the Blackberry World for the Blackberry phones, so don’t expect all the top of the line games and apps to be on here, through there are a few here and there. I would suggest this tablet to people who want to do some basic browsing on the web, check facebook, and just relax while on the go. I wouldn’t say it is a bad tablet for getting your work done, but I don’t think this is the tablet you should be relying on.

I love this thing!
—– (update) —— Tip to improve WiFi reception
The 2.4 Ghz WiFi antenna is in the upper left hand corner in landscape orientation. Wrapping your hand around this corner to hold Playbook, as I like to do, reduces WiFi signal strength a lot (a bar or two, factor of x100 or 20 dbm), which can be the difference between getting online or not when traveling. A simple trick to get good WiFi reception while still holding Playbook with the left hand is just flip the Playbook over so the ‘Blackberry’ logo is on top. This puts the most commonly used 2.4 Ghz WiFi antenna on the right.
Check out the ‘SANOXY Bluethooth Keyboard for iPad’. It’s a very inexpensive bluetooth keyboard that works fine with Playbook. ————— 7″ screen size is fine, sharp as a tack (viewed with reading lens of bifocals), bright and colorful, sound good, screen responsive to touch. Swipes easy to learn.
On browser homepage On my desktop browsers I have all my frequently visited links in a single custom .html file that I set as my homepage. To me a custom .html homepage is essential, it makes bouncing around the web fast and easy. I first tried copying my custom .html file into the ‘Document’ folder, but found it was not visible under ‘Document’ icon, but later going backdoor I got it installed as the browser homepage. Here’s the procedure:
Type into browser: file:///accounts/1000/shared (note 3 ///)
This brings up a simple file manager that allows you to see what files are in memory and even to launch them. In the Document folder was my custom html homepage file, which I had earlier copied over via USB. Tapping the filename loaded it into the browser, and holding my finger on it allowed me to copy the filename (via the copy box). Finally going into the browser settings I was able to paste the filename into the homepage window. Now every time I start the browser up comes my custom homepage.
Another neat trick is to have alternate start links for the browser on your home screen. This is done by clicking the star+ button and selecting add to home screen. For example I have a icon that will start the browser at the New York Times and another for local radar.
On media files MP3 files can simply be copied over and will play. Video files are more difficult. I have a library of captured .flv files and captured TV shows in .ts format, some of which I would like to put on the Playbook to view when out of WiFi range. However, neither of these file formats is supported directly on the Playbook. In principle there are two options: copy over the file and use an app that does on the fly conversion, or two, preconvert the file to a supported format (like .avi or .mp4). I experimented with both.

There are several apps that claim to allow you to play .flv files on Playbook. I bought one for $0.99 and while it played .flv files, it was not clean (position slider did not work). I tried a couple of converter programs, which you run on your desktop before downloading. The best (by far) was Freemake Video Converter, not only is it free, but it’s simple to use and will convert a batch of files in one shot. I found it shrank the file size of .ts files, which are initially quite large, by roughly x3 and expanded the size of .flv files, which are initially small, by roughly x2. ————- update My tests show HD (1080p) videos taken by Playbook are quite large, about 6 Gbyte/hour. I found running them through Freemake Video Converter with NO change in resolution, file type, or video quality reduced file size to 2 Gbyte/hour, a factor of 3. Very handy if you want to keep lot of Playbook video stored on the Playbook. ————- Before converting a lot of files I did several tests comparing file formats and resolution. Freemake Video Converter makes it easy to reduce file size by lowering resolution. Tests with a sharp HD video showed no difference that I could see between 1080p and 720p on this small screen, so I decided to go with 720p. This resolution reduces .ts file size by a factor of 4. Reducing quality to TV level, still very watchable, reduces .ts file size by a factor of six.
Quick tests of various formats (avi, mp4, wmv) showed no significant difference in quality or file size and all seemed to play fine on Playbook, so I choose avi and began converting. This turned out to be a mistake. Not one of the first three converted TV shows (1 hr) would play correctly on Playbook. One refused to open and other two gave an error when the slider was moved, though all played correctly on my desktop. The only reason I can come up with is that Playbook has a problem with long files in avi format. My quick tests had been with short files. I then noticed that it says in the Blackberry document, ‘Supported Media Types on Blackberry Tablets’, avi. wmv, and mp4 are “supported”, but the “recommended video format for local playback” is mp4. So I reconverted the same three TV shows to mp4, also lowering the resolution one step to 720p, and now all played fine on Playbook. So my recommendation is stick with mp4, which is the format Playbook uses for its own videos, and reduce resolution to 720p (1280 x 720).
WiFi file transfer A neat trick to easily transfer files to Playbook from your computer over WiFi (no cable!) is to put a shortcut to Playbook on your Windows desktop. Set the ‘target’ of the shortcut to either the IP of your Playbook (found under About, Network) or the ‘Tablet Network Name’, which you can change (found under Storage and Sharing, Network properties) preceded by \ (two backslashes). When you click on the shortcut, Explorer opens and Playbook will appear as a Network device. Click the Media folder and you now have access to all Playbook media folders. For this to work the Playbook ‘WiFi Sharing’ setting (in Storage and Sharing) needs to be ON. Transfer rate is a little slower than with a USB cable (about half), but perfectly usable. (update) For some non-transfer operations, like file rename, I find USB more reliable than WiFi.
Html files, pdf files and File manager The Blackberry (so called) “File Manager” doesn’t show file details, and critically (for some weird reason) it hides local html files, though it does show local pdf files and allows you to open them. Real file managers are available in App World. A pretty good basic file manager (free) is ‘AIR Browser’ and better is ‘File Browser’ (a buck).
‘Air Browser’ and ‘File Browser’ provide a way to work with local html files, they show them and will open them in the browser. Once open in the browser local html files work well, all the internal and external links work. I find it frustrating that Blackberry doesn’t provide direct support for local html files, because I have a whole library of such files that I want to use on the Playbook.
Privacy A useful app for file privacy is ‘File Shield’ (buck). It provides a simple way (without passwords!) to hide videos, photos, and documents. In the app directories and individual files can be toggled between private and public. When set to private, files and directories effectively disappear, visible neither to Blackberry applications nor file managers.
Bugs and weirdnesses I bought just after OS 2 release and my OS upgraded to 2.0 when my new tablet initialized. Here are the bugs and weirdnesses I have found in a week or so of use.
— I initally wrote that my volume up/dn buttons had never worked and assumed it was a software bug because I read someone else reported volume buttons stopped working after an upgrade to OS 2.0. See comments where Ronald kindly set me straight. — Video application has a couple of drawbacks, one is no folders. In the pictures application if you organize picture files in subfolders, the opening screen shows only the subfolders. Not so with the video application. You can put videos in subfolders, but the video application still displays all your videos files on the opening screen. Primitive and inconsistent. Even more surprising the video application displays videos (with the formats it supports) regardless of the folder. Put a video in say, Voice folder, and it still shows up under Videos. — The video application provides two display views: Downloaded Videos and Recorded Videos. Videos uploading to the Camera directory are displayed in the Recorded Video view ordered by the file time stamp, so some separation of videos is possible. Videos in the Downloaded Videos view are ordered alphabetically, No other sort appears to be possible. — Document mode of the browser does not work right in portrait orientation (tested with New York Times articles) — a Hotmail text message in browser would not finger expand — Adobe’s pdf reader come installed on the Playbook, but it is not well integrated with the browser. When a pdf link in the browser is clicked, instead of just opening the file your only option is to download the file. — ‘Power Off’ is a built-in Blackberry app with just three power buttons that are the same as under the battery icon. ‘StandBy’ in the app does not put the tablet to sleep (as it should), it does a ReStart (locking up your machine for two minutes)! You have to wonder just how much testing Blackberry does when a trivial app like this does not work right after a major OS upgrade. — As I discussed above, it appears the video player has a problem with long .avi files, though this format claims to be “supported”. — With Blackberry emphasis on security it is surprising its OS does not directly provide support the hiding of files. — After a week of use the browser crashed (gray screen) requiring Playbook restart to fix it. — On my 2nd day with Playbook it crashed (it first refused to open files, then it hung with Shutting down splash screen displayed). There is a way to hardware reset the Playbook, equivalent to holding down the power button on Windows desktops, but I had to search the web to find it. It’s hold down three of top four buttons (vol up, vol dn and power) for 10-15 sec (or until you see red led). This restored my Playbook to good health with no loss of data. I took off one star (5 => 4) for the volume buttons not working (whoops, see comments) and for a system crash in two days of use.

I know it might sound crazy to some, but yesterday I bought my second Playbook at an excellent price. Last year we bought a Playbook hoping that Blackberry would release their BBM 10 software. Well, they didn’t but we are still using our Blackberry on a daily basis to surf the web and watch cartoons on Youtube. This is our main use for the Playbook, and although there are games and apps, we haven’t got enough time to spend playing whatever game is in fashion. My daughter, however, has got some nice apps to play and draw that can keep her busy. We also use the Playbook as a PDF reader and now with the second one we will use it to video chat when away from the family for work. At least this is our hope, since sadly we didn’t manage to do this with the Blackberry Z10, which I had to return. All in all, for the price we paid, we are satisfied. It charges quickly with the fast charging docking station and I am sure that we don’t use it to its full potential. We have a terrible computer at home and we haven’t downloaded music or videos onto the Playbook yet. I am sure that if we really needed Apps such as Skype or Whatsapp (or anything else that is in fashion these days) this would not be the tablet to buy, but these Apps can be installed on a smartphone very easily. All in all, a good tablet for web browsing and media playing if the budget is tight.

I love the Playbook. It is a handy size with an excellent fast browser supporting Flash video. It is sturdy and very well put together. Unfortunately apps are limited and you need a Blackberry smartphone at hand to enable the bluetooth ‘Bridge’ that links your emails, address book & calendar. We have been promised future compatability with Android apps that should greatly increase the appeal.
The Playbbok is also tethered by bluetooth to access your phone’s 3G network, useful if you are unable to obtain a wifi signal. There is therefore no need for a 3G variant making the Playbook a good value alternative to the i-Pad. The Playbook has HDMEI, USB and Fast Charge connectors but no memory expansion capability or SD card. I would thererfore recommend at least the 32MB version.
I did have a little difficulty getting the software to start-up but the free 90 days UK support line soon sorted the problem and it has been trouble free since. It is comforting to know that that there is help from Blackberry if you need it.

I’ve had the Playbook for around eighteen months now. It’s an absolute bargain compared to other tablets on the market. If you want to use your email, surf the web, take pictures or video, store documents, listen to music, or use a few simple commonplace apps, it’s brilliant. There is the problem that it was a commercial disaster for Blackberry and so they’ve given up on it really, which is a shame. I would suggest you download the origami browser – it is streets ahead of the native Blackberry browser. I don’t give a damn about having 101 applications or playing games. If you don’t care about that sort of thing either then this is a smashing buy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Its no iPad and its not about the Apps
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 28, 2012
Size: 32 GBVerified Purchase
Lots of good reviews, but I suggest you ask yourself why you’re thinking of buying this. Better be becasue its cheap, because its not best.
Ok; its far from junk. Its nicely built, has a bright screen (great for showing off pictures & video) & a competent web-browser. I like the size and weight. BlackBerry Bridge is a useful feature if (like me) you’re one of a seemingly dwindling band of BB users.
But there are some signficant problems. Its slow to boot up (90 seonds maybe, unless you leave in stand-by and that drains the battery quickly), its slow to charge (I leave it overnight), bettery life is poor if you are using Bluetooth (maybe only a couple of hours), I find the touchscreen is often unresponsive, and the browser sometines spontanioulsy shuts down (in fairness the OS2 upgrade seems to have improved that). And its just awkward to get things done (try mailing a photo or file to a contact – virtually impossible with OS1, clunky and slow with OS2, unless you connect to a PC, which at least you can do, but is hardly the point surely). BB Bridge freezes & I’ve had to reinstall 3 times (tough to do by the way – if you’re interested, try to delete BB Bridge AND Bluetooth items on BOTH devises & start install from stratch). I watch streamed videos on my iPhone, but they won’t play on the Playbook on the same WiFi.
You get the picture… but the point is that iPad users I know report none of the above proplems…. To be clear, I’m Apple agnostic, but I’m just left wondering if RMI have put anywhere near enough development into the Playbook, or have just lost interest.
So I bought it becaue I’m a BB user and wanted a reasonably cheap tablet to find out if I would get use out if it. I do. And it somewhat pains me to say it, but my next one will be an iPad.

Pros – well built and sturdy, decent built in browser. good audio for a small tablet, plenty of built in storage, very acceptable screen resolution, wifi connects easily, OK cameras, fair price.
Cons – very few decent apps and most of those are way too expensive, android apps have to be sideloaded – fiddly and time consuming, RIM constantly promising upgrade to BB10 at some point in the future but it never seems to happen and now never will(see next paragraph).
This could and should have been almost a significant a tablet as the ipad but has been constantly let down by appalling planning and support from RIM. It’s such a pity because there is a lot to like about the Playbook and even 2 years after it’s launch it still performs almost as well as many newer and more expensive tablets. If only the OS could be properly upgraded. Sadly RIM have now decided NOT to upgrade the OS to BB10 and have therefore totally let down very many Playbook owners.
Paraphrasing the the words of my old headmaster – “with a little more effort RIM could do so much better”!
I have just added a fourth star, as I get used to it sideloading becomes easier. NO chance of a 5th star since RIM have reneged on their promises to upgrade to BB10.

What are the best courses for commerce stream students after 12th?
“Students unable to get enough score to opt Science, opt for Commerce”
“With Commerce, I have only limited career options, like CA, CS and B.Com”
“Only students from a business-class family background should choose Commerce”
The statements above are some ideas we've been led by our society, parents, and friends to believe, but hardly hold a candle to the reality. The truth however is that the commerce stream, much within the same way as science, or humanities for that matter, unveil a plethora of career opportunities for college students.
While the long-standing norms for choosing streams in our country have dictated that toppers and academically-gifted students naturally drift towards science, it's a practice that's fast being overturned.

Cross-Pollination of Industry
Companies do not reinvent the wheel though occasionally their R&D may do just that. But more generally the digital economy democratizes global commerce by shrinking the borders between industries whose newfound permeability of ideas, capital, and finished goods raises productivity and innovation-led growth. Modern technologies in this age of disruption is then the sum of a cross-pollination between companies from which innovation is imported by an unrelated firm to commercialize a product in their respective market: (1) SpaceX imported the unlikely production methods for water towers and oil refinery tanks as a turnkey operation to scale up prototypes of its Starship after the decision to substitute stainless steel for composite materials; (2) Last-mile delivery services imported air drones for quicker distribution; (3) Big-box retailers like Walmart and Home Depot imported e-commerce into their core businesses to grow marketshare; (4) The apparel industry imported semiconductors with sensors into smart wearables to measure the biometrics of users; (5) Makers of consumer electronics like Philips imported wireless connectivity to develop smart-home gadgets. This cross-pollination between various technologies decreases the lead times of innovation within the pipelines of companies whose febrile pace for marketshare conduces to ‘Industry 4.0’.
This diffusion of proven technology across firms lowers the risk of R&D for which the confidence in capital investment remains above water sometimes in spite of burn rates for multiple quarters. In migrating technologies already tested there is a reassurance to designers and engineers alike of how their use will bring more value to a firm. Many mergers and acquisitions today whether they are horizontal or vertical are then a testament to how the digital economy emboldens bullish companies in pursuit of new technologies to capture marketshare like Unilever’s procurement of the Dollar Shave Club, or Facebook’s buyout of Instagram, or Tesla’s absorption of Solarcity, or Disney’s purchase of Marvel, or Google’s takeover of Android. Such diversification and even development of big-tent ecosystems like those of Amazon or Apple with over a billion devices in the wild becomes unprecedented in the value chains of companies as the life cycle of their products is pared down which in turn demands a welter of innovation to ward off competition. Every firm comes to covet the next benchmark of an advantage for the sake of profit, manifesting in how companies espouse a startup culture to remain the leaders and not laggards of their industries. Such urgency to innovate informs the growth strategies of all companies in today’s digital world.
A lofty performance in this new economy however does not guarantee primacy for long which Research in Motion became notoriously emblematic of amid the World War I of smartphones in North American markets. The Blackberry produced by RIM held universal appeal all the way up to the Oval Office until the UX and form-factor of iPhones trounced it. The Blackberry’s tactile keyboard simply could not compete with the ecosystem of iTunes and an App Store despite RIM’s own imitation in 2009, although this tit-for-tat spurred Apple to launch the iMessenger against Blackberry’s BBM later in 2011. Ultimately, the product family of iPhones generated greater profit as a result of its marketing towards the youth demographic since its technology privileged such core features as the futuristic touchscreen or web surfing which lured corporate professionals away from their Blackberries over time. Issuing from this foregoing appeal to personal and business users, Apple then created more value with consumers from its reinvention of the phone whose brand loyalty pushed marketshare and sales upward for its user-friendly products. This genius broaches once more the cross-pollination of technologies whereby Apple’s core competency was its product innovation as other industries filed the void to create the rich content of its apps, music, and Internet browsing.
Exploiting the output of other industries to partially create your own defines the marriage of innovation between firms. Amazon espoused the same philosophy as a maiden retailer to connect sellers with buyers for goods through its use of platform capitalism which Airbnb, Uber, and Facebook replicated. What is the basics of this business model? Quite simply Amazon transplants the division of labour from the mass production of Fordism in assembly lines to online markets. All inputs are standardized from the wares being sold and together they capture value with the scale economies and monopoly power that invariably follow. What becomes unique for this business model is how these giant firms exercise control over upstream and downstream processes while skirting government oversight since they are neither beholden to labour nor consumers in a mercenary kind of way. Risks and liabilities pass onto other parties in the absence of direct ownership as the supply chain is farmed out. The digital economy in perverse logic grants immunity to such middlemen as retailers abide by Amazon’s rules and consumers assume the risk yet none complain since the one sells to a larger market and the other enjoys lower prices. The cross-pollination of technologies thus creates rents in excess of profits as Amazon redefines shopping away from brick-and-mortar stores.
The value-added of smart wearables signals another seismic shift as the adoption of this technology from a niche to a mass market changes the apparel industry and, moreover, society where humanity turns bionic in lockstep with a better quality of life. Embedding electronics into textiles and accessories with which users interact especially in smart environments, like home gadgets and appliances, illustrates how industries are slowly becoming homogenous with one another. Such cross-pollination of technology informs products between smartwatches, smart glasses, clothing, footwear, headbands, wristbands, or jewellery whose many functions measure wellness and fitness while providing the convenience of wireless connectivity. The seamless integration of electronics in the lives of consumers is a growing market valued at billions of dollars as demand increases proportionally with the overall change in the percentage of patents being registered over the last decade. Also pertinent in this market is the big data analysis of end users on their behaviours and performances that can be uploaded to a cloud-based system for commercial development of future products. Investors see high returns in this industry as it continues to miniaturize the form-factor from Sony’s Walkman in 1979 to the modern Fitbit and iWatch thus concluding in the fungible nature of innovation today.
Another case study includes major logistic companies which experiment with multicopter drones imported from recreational use since 80 percent of packages by e-commerce weigh less than 5 lb. If machine learning and extended battery life can be integrated well enough into this hardware then the autonomous system would minimize costs, time, and CO2 emissions. Rather than make use of public roads a drone would fly a parcel by air in minutes most notably to remote locations where such infrastructure is nonexistent. On average the reduction of time is in the order of 35-50 percent for shipments between depots and estates according to studies at MIT. FedEx and UPS are in the midst of adopting this technology in their last-mile delivery services for which the urbanization of the global economy and the growth of e-commerce were the impetus. The United Nations foresees 65 percent of the world population living in urban centres by 2050 whose density will require innovation from couriers to accommodate greater demand and volume when traffic will be a deterrent for the more traditional methods of shipment. Drones offer a viable solution to the juggernaut of crowdsourcing from firms like UberEats, DoorDash, or Foodora which upon their entry could capture the marketshare of legacy companies if the latter are unable to transplant such innovation into their delivery services.
These same trappings of Industry 4.0 have contributed to Space 2.0 in effectively privatizing the final frontier for mankind amid the industry’s upswing along an S-curve with regard to development against the status quo from government agencies and aerospace contractors. This fringe movement consists of Silicon Valley entrepreneurialism, venture capital from angel investors, risk-taking, open IT, use of non-space technology, and rapid prototyping unlike the ossified operations and public funding of NASA. The Wild West of California revolutionized the industry with the knowledge of how any learning curve requires failure which has until now dissuaded the corporate world from entering space as a new market whose valuation will exceed USD 1 trillion by 2040. SpaceX came to produce the first reusable rocket, flew the first commercial space capsule for humans, recovered and reused the first stage of an orbital launch, made the first commercial flight to the International Space Station, resupplied the ISS three times, and reduced the cost of launches by a factor of 2. The company has had a banner year with the accolade of being the largest producer of rocket engines in the world despite the many detractors and doubters who balked at the notion of any startup in space. SpaceX thus epitomizes the thesis of how the digital economy erases borders between industries.

A BlackBerry tablet seems like an odd purchase in 2017, but I did my homework and knew I wasn’t getting an iPad Air. I was getting this tablet for work – Spreadsheets, Word Docs and hopefully use the Bible app. The price was manageable and I figured that even if it turns out to be obsolete, I can still use it as a music player in our kitchen or something. Well, I was pleasantly surprised by this little tablet. The OS is brilliant. It’s such a joy and ease for multi-tasking. I was able to get my spreadsheets on it immediately and use it to check my messages and keep my calendar. The Bible app works flawlessly. Yes, the tablet is a little slow, but it’s a 2011 tablet, it’s to be expected. Yes, it doesn’t have a huge cache of apps to choose from, but the apps available are quality. I even found some fun games with great graphics. My music is fully loaded and the speakers are fantastic. I even tried taking a few pics and the quality is impressive! It’s not great for social media. Facebook is functional but not great. Instagram and Netflix simply won’t work on this tablet. You can go the Instagram website and at least view pictures, but that’s all. I did manage to get YouTube working with an browser I downloaded from BlackBerry World called “Frost”. Just go to the YouTube web page and it works great. It let me sign in, but I had to re-sign in every time I opened it. But when the videos play on YouTube, you can leave the app and the video keeps playing – very cool! I also have a BlackBerry Passport phone and it lets me sync with it and my Playbook to text and send BBMs. If you’re willing to put in a little work and do some research, you can get some current Android apps working on this thing. I have Evernote, Kindle, and even a version of Google Maps working. Again, do not expect this tablet to be everything the current tablets are, but if you want to spend very little and get a functional tablet that can serve a few purposes well, give this a look. The best things about this Tablet is the multi-tasking feature, the Messaging inbox, the speakers, the quality of the screen and the price. The negatives are a lack of apps and the general slowness. Hope this helps someone!

The Blackberry Playbook Tablet isn’t for those hardcore iPad and Android people. In fact, I would not recommend you buy this tablet if that is the kind of person you are. This tablet is almost like a beginning step into the world of tablets. You get plenty of memory on the tablet for a price lower than any other competitor offer, but there is good reason for that. For one, this tablet is older than these fancy tablets that we see nowadays, so the specs aren’t as hot. There is Bluetooth, but if you have an iPhone or Android or just anything that isn’t a Blackberry, your phone is not going to interact with this tablet other than giving it data. It CAN’T support file sharing like pictures or music through Bluetooth, but you can plug it into your computer to upload files onto it. Apps are not exact the strong suite of the Playbook either. It has a more limited version of the Blackberry World for the Blackberry phones, so don’t expect all the top of the line games and apps to be on here, through there are a few here and there. I would suggest this tablet to people who want to do some basic browsing on the web, check facebook, and just relax while on the go. I wouldn’t say it is a bad tablet for getting your work done, but I don’t think this is the tablet you should be relying on.

I love this thing!
—– (update) —— Tip to improve WiFi reception
The 2.4 Ghz WiFi antenna is in the upper left hand corner in landscape orientation. Wrapping your hand around this corner to hold Playbook, as I like to do, reduces WiFi signal strength a lot (a bar or two, factor of x100 or 20 dbm), which can be the difference between getting online or not when traveling. A simple trick to get good WiFi reception while still holding Playbook with the left hand is just flip the Playbook over so the ‘Blackberry’ logo is on top. This puts the most commonly used 2.4 Ghz WiFi antenna on the right.
Check out the ‘SANOXY Bluethooth Keyboard for iPad’. It’s a very inexpensive bluetooth keyboard that works fine with Playbook. ————— 7″ screen size is fine, sharp as a tack (viewed with reading lens of bifocals), bright and colorful, sound good, screen responsive to touch. Swipes easy to learn.
On browser homepage On my desktop browsers I have all my frequently visited links in a single custom .html file that I set as my homepage. To me a custom .html homepage is essential, it makes bouncing around the web fast and easy. I first tried copying my custom .html file into the ‘Document’ folder, but found it was not visible under ‘Document’ icon, but later going backdoor I got it installed as the browser homepage. Here’s the procedure:
Type into browser: file:///accounts/1000/shared (note 3 ///)
This brings up a simple file manager that allows you to see what files are in memory and even to launch them. In the Document folder was my custom html homepage file, which I had earlier copied over via USB. Tapping the filename loaded it into the browser, and holding my finger on it allowed me to copy the filename (via the copy box). Finally going into the browser settings I was able to paste the filename into the homepage window. Now every time I start the browser up comes my custom homepage.
Another neat trick is to have alternate start links for the browser on your home screen. This is done by clicking the star+ button and selecting add to home screen. For example I have a icon that will start the browser at the New York Times and another for local radar.
On media files MP3 files can simply be copied over and will play. Video files are more difficult. I have a library of captured .flv files and captured TV shows in .ts format, some of which I would like to put on the Playbook to view when out of WiFi range. However, neither of these file formats is supported directly on the Playbook. In principle there are two options: copy over the file and use an app that does on the fly conversion, or two, preconvert the file to a supported format (like .avi or .mp4). I experimented with both.
Xem thêm: #j2team_ask
There are several apps that claim to allow you to play .flv files on Playbook. I bought one for $0.99 and while it played .flv files, it was not clean (position slider did not work). I tried a couple of converter programs, which you run on your desktop before downloading. The best (by far) was Freemake Video Converter, not only is it free, but it’s simple to use and will convert a batch of files in one shot. I found it shrank the file size of .ts files, which are initially quite large, by roughly x3 and expanded the size of .flv files, which are initially small, by roughly x2. ————- update My tests show HD (1080p) videos taken by Playbook are quite large, about 6 Gbyte/hour. I found running them through Freemake Video Converter with NO change in resolution, file type, or video quality reduced file size to 2 Gbyte/hour, a factor of 3. Very handy if you want to keep lot of Playbook video stored on the Playbook. ————- Before converting a lot of files I did several tests comparing file formats and resolution. Freemake Video Converter makes it easy to reduce file size by lowering resolution. Tests with a sharp HD video showed no difference that I could see between 1080p and 720p on this small screen, so I decided to go with 720p. This resolution reduces .ts file size by a factor of 4. Reducing quality to TV level, still very watchable, reduces .ts file size by a factor of six.
Quick tests of various formats (avi, mp4, wmv) showed no significant difference in quality or file size and all seemed to play fine on Playbook, so I choose avi and began converting. This turned out to be a mistake. Not one of the first three converted TV shows (1 hr) would play correctly on Playbook. One refused to open and other two gave an error when the slider was moved, though all played correctly on my desktop. The only reason I can come up with is that Playbook has a problem with long files in avi format. My quick tests had been with short files. I then noticed that it says in the Blackberry document, ‘Supported Media Types on Blackberry Tablets’, avi. wmv, and mp4 are “supported”, but the “recommended video format for local playback” is mp4. So I reconverted the same three TV shows to mp4, also lowering the resolution one step to 720p, and now all played fine on Playbook. So my recommendation is stick with mp4, which is the format Playbook uses for its own videos, and reduce resolution to 720p (1280 x 720).
WiFi file transfer A neat trick to easily transfer files to Playbook from your computer over WiFi (no cable!) is to put a shortcut to Playbook on your Windows desktop. Set the ‘target’ of the shortcut to either the IP of your Playbook (found under About, Network) or the ‘Tablet Network Name’, which you can change (found under Storage and Sharing, Network properties) preceded by \ (two backslashes). When you click on the shortcut, Explorer opens and Playbook will appear as a Network device. Click the Media folder and you now have access to all Playbook media folders. For this to work the Playbook ‘WiFi Sharing’ setting (in Storage and Sharing) needs to be ON. Transfer rate is a little slower than with a USB cable (about half), but perfectly usable. (update) For some non-transfer operations, like file rename, I find USB more reliable than WiFi.
Html files, pdf files and File manager The Blackberry (so called) “File Manager” doesn’t show file details, and critically (for some weird reason) it hides local html files, though it does show local pdf files and allows you to open them. Real file managers are available in App World. A pretty good basic file manager (free) is ‘AIR Browser’ and better is ‘File Browser’ (a buck).
‘Air Browser’ and ‘File Browser’ provide a way to work with local html files, they show them and will open them in the browser. Once open in the browser local html files work well, all the internal and external links work. I find it frustrating that Blackberry doesn’t provide direct support for local html files, because I have a whole library of such files that I want to use on the Playbook.
Privacy A useful app for file privacy is ‘File Shield’ (buck). It provides a simple way (without passwords!) to hide videos, photos, and documents. In the app directories and individual files can be toggled between private and public. When set to private, files and directories effectively disappear, visible neither to Blackberry applications nor file managers.
Bugs and weirdnesses I bought just after OS 2 release and my OS upgraded to 2.0 when my new tablet initialized. Here are the bugs and weirdnesses I have found in a week or so of use.
— I initally wrote that my volume up/dn buttons had never worked and assumed it was a software bug because I read someone else reported volume buttons stopped working after an upgrade to OS 2.0. See comments where Ronald kindly set me straight. — Video application has a couple of drawbacks, one is no folders. In the pictures application if you organize picture files in subfolders, the opening screen shows only the subfolders. Not so with the video application. You can put videos in subfolders, but the video application still displays all your videos files on the opening screen. Primitive and inconsistent. Even more surprising the video application displays videos (with the formats it supports) regardless of the folder. Put a video in say, Voice folder, and it still shows up under Videos. — The video application provides two display views: Downloaded Videos and Recorded Videos. Videos uploading to the Camera directory are displayed in the Recorded Video view ordered by the file time stamp, so some separation of videos is possible. Videos in the Downloaded Videos view are ordered alphabetically, No other sort appears to be possible. — Document mode of the browser does not work right in portrait orientation (tested with New York Times articles) — a Hotmail text message in browser would not finger expand — Adobe’s pdf reader come installed on the Playbook, but it is not well integrated with the browser. When a pdf link in the browser is clicked, instead of just opening the file your only option is to download the file. — ‘Power Off’ is a built-in Blackberry app with just three power buttons that are the same as under the battery icon. ‘StandBy’ in the app does not put the tablet to sleep (as it should), it does a ReStart (locking up your machine for two minutes)! You have to wonder just how much testing Blackberry does when a trivial app like this does not work right after a major OS upgrade. — As I discussed above, it appears the video player has a problem with long .avi files, though this format claims to be “supported”. — With Blackberry emphasis on security it is surprising its OS does not directly provide support the hiding of files. — After a week of use the browser crashed (gray screen) requiring Playbook restart to fix it. — On my 2nd day with Playbook it crashed (it first refused to open files, then it hung with Shutting down splash screen displayed). There is a way to hardware reset the Playbook, equivalent to holding down the power button on Windows desktops, but I had to search the web to find it. It’s hold down three of top four buttons (vol up, vol dn and power) for 10-15 sec (or until you see red led). This restored my Playbook to good health with no loss of data. I took off one star (5 => 4) for the volume buttons not working (whoops, see comments) and for a system crash in two days of use.

I know it might sound crazy to some, but yesterday I bought my second Playbook at an excellent price. Last year we bought a Playbook hoping that Blackberry would release their BBM 10 software. Well, they didn’t but we are still using our Blackberry on a daily basis to surf the web and watch cartoons on Youtube. This is our main use for the Playbook, and although there are games and apps, we haven’t got enough time to spend playing whatever game is in fashion. My daughter, however, has got some nice apps to play and draw that can keep her busy. We also use the Playbook as a PDF reader and now with the second one we will use it to video chat when away from the family for work. At least this is our hope, since sadly we didn’t manage to do this with the Blackberry Z10, which I had to return. All in all, for the price we paid, we are satisfied. It charges quickly with the fast charging docking station and I am sure that we don’t use it to its full potential. We have a terrible computer at home and we haven’t downloaded music or videos onto the Playbook yet. I am sure that if we really needed Apps such as Skype or Whatsapp (or anything else that is in fashion these days) this would not be the tablet to buy, but these Apps can be installed on a smartphone very easily. All in all, a good tablet for web browsing and media playing if the budget is tight.

I’ve had the Playbook for around eighteen months now. It’s an absolute bargain compared to other tablets on the market. If you want to use your email, surf the web, take pictures or video, store documents, listen to music, or use a few simple commonplace apps, it’s brilliant. There is the problem that it was a commercial disaster for Blackberry and so they’ve given up on it really, which is a shame. I would suggest you download the origami browser – it is streets ahead of the native Blackberry browser. I don’t give a damn about having 101 applications or playing games. If you don’t care about that sort of thing either then this is a smashing buy.

Pros – well built and sturdy, decent built in browser. good audio for a small tablet, plenty of built in storage, very acceptable screen resolution, wifi connects easily, OK cameras, fair price.
Cons – very few decent apps and most of those are way too expensive, android apps have to be sideloaded – fiddly and time consuming, RIM constantly promising upgrade to BB10 at some point in the future but it never seems to happen and now never will(see next paragraph).

This could and should have been almost a significant a tablet as the ipad but has been constantly let down by appalling planning and support from RIM. It’s such a pity because there is a lot to like about the Playbook and even 2 years after it’s launch it still performs almost as well as many newer and more expensive tablets. If only the OS could be properly upgraded. Sadly RIM have now decided NOT to upgrade the OS to BB10 and have therefore totally let down very many Playbook owners.
Paraphrasing the the words of my old headmaster – “with a little more effort RIM could do so much better”!
I have just added a fourth star, as I get used to it sideloading becomes easier. NO chance of a 5th star since RIM have reneged on their promises to upgrade to BB10.

Great tablet, let down by a lack of apps, and lack of ongoing support from RIM/Blackberry. It’s a shame, because this could have been so good. As it was cheap I will hang onto mine for a bit. And it makes a nice gadget to use for some stuff. To be honest though, I don’t need it, and very rarely use it just due to there not being relevant apps available. Also, now I have a BB10 phone, the bridge has very limited functionality, I have lost most of the features I used to use with my older BB7 phone. Battery great, high quality, and out of the box it works extremely well for the basics. Try to get it to do more than this and you will be disappointed (even with sideloading Android apps – which are very flaky when you try to run them… Kindle being an example – it’s made me buy a Kindle because it was so rubbish!)

When you are away from your wifi or free hotspot, you can still get on the Internet because the Internet is accessed via bluetooth (Bridge) through your phone in your pocket.
Also if you download “print to go” to your pc or laptop you can select print to go and your document will appear on your tablet in pdf format, so instead of carrying around wads of paper printouts, you can have them on your tablet
I highly recommend this tablet, it also looks good, we’ll made and easy to use,I like it more than the ipad.
