Congratz! Playing with the PB from one of my friends, who purchased it from BB Showroom, it showed over 13 GB free after adding 4-5 applications.

Most probably. I will check once Charging is over.

Btw, I thought it would charge through USB-Lappy but no.

Interface looks ok. Too much space on sides of screen left empty/useless. This could have been utilized or tab size could have been reduced further.

It did charge from the lappy (the battery icon changed from battery to charging) but was slow.

+1 for the design concern. Too much space on the side, they could have reduced the space and weight.

Damn... Got a mail from Letsbuy saying my shipment will be delayed...

Funny that they stated the obvious "You ordered a device that is selling like hotcakes"... Is this even a valid reason for delayed shipment??? :S

hey guys, please vote for BlackBerry PlayBook at this link so that SUPPORT FOR PB is added @ XDA Devs forum and hopefully, Android Ice-Cream Sandwich is ported to PB via Cyanogenmod

They can't port Android unless they find a way to root the OS bootloader which is protected by MShield technology...
I have posted my vote anyway... Hope to get Android soon, if not i am happy with Android player

As per their order page and CC, it's 2-4, anyway going by their track record, I am almost certain they won't honor that :(
