My mother is going to be gutted, her cheapo android tablet arrived yesterday and my dad has got the playbook and he's using it in the shed for an internet radio

Depends what your budget is, but 32GB is the best price/performance option.

What cases or screen protectors are you lot using ?

sunny007 · 6 Jan 2012 at 11:09

anyone got a guide to installing the android apps on 2.0 beta ?

Just took my PB back to CPW for an exchange due to the spongey volume button... new one is flawless and all buttons have a satisfying click.

No screen protector but im using a case that i got from Canada, its called the Icon carbon fibre case...well made and protects my playbook nicely with cut outs for the camera and ports. It can also be used as a stand.

This one here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MWmyYmG1UI

Dont think its available here, i had mine sent over from my brother in Canada.

in the airport browsing and youtubing and this device reallyis the perfect size for holding and carrying around, i absolutely love it even despite the lack of app goodness. screensnd speakers are fantastic, and browsing really is phenomenal.

Over at XDA dev forums they are taking votes on possible devices to have a new forum. This would be good for the playbook, which is currently in second place.

more votes can't hurt though and will probably mean we will end up with more apps and support. So go vote, 7th option from the bottom.
