Hmmm, the bridge feature was meant to be quite a revelation but it took RIM a long time to get it out there, and some people reported some problems. I never had a BB to sync them, so overall I don't know what the experience is like (it was N900 and Desire Z).

To be honest, the PlayBook is pretty outdated now. Unless you can use it in your kitchen or somewhere else as an appliance (mostly for Web browsing, Music playback, or some videos) it should be fine.

As a tablet its sort of thick and sort of heavy. Battery life was good, but don't know how good it would be now since its been years. Batterys eventually die out, and this one isn't removable.

PS the display isn't HD, its glare-y in the sun, and the viewing angles could be better ...at least with today's standards.

The most annoying thing about it is those button arrangement, and how small and shallow those physical buttons are.
