[nature boy]

oh ok, cool thanks man.

[Wetundies]

when the guy responded, the gift card was already over, u still want it?

[nature boy]

no, it's ok. apparently futureshop and bestbuy have $200 off now if you order online. thanks anyway.

[Duncan]

not sure if you bought your playbook yet nat, but sears is clearing them out for cheap too... it's $200 off at sears right now until Oct 2. I think fs/bb were doing a $100 off promo and you get a $100 gc which is essentially the same but that just means you have to spend that $100 at bb/fs again which means that you technically only get $100 but you get an extra $100 worth of other crap that you probably wouldn't have bought anyways.. haha...

plus sears is offering it with a leather case too

[geForce]

Hey, you can order it online too! That means you don't actually have to walk through Sears.. they're always in such shambles and so hard to find anything.

so what's your review of the playbook so far?

[nature boy]

i got it from sears, they had the best deal. $299 for 16gb with case and screen protector (both mediocre, but still free if you think about it).

so far it's pretty zippy. the bb bridge is a little glitchy, in that if i walk away with my phone it doesn't automatically reconnect when i come back (or at least i didn't figure out how). but so far it's an awesome companion to my phone, and great to take with me to take a dump.

the size is awesome too, easily hold it in one hand and use my other hand for... other stuff.
