The tech reporter in my local paper made a great comment about the Playbook reviews. He just didn't think the issues the reviews were picking on were either relatable or cared for by the purchasers.<p>The things that I remember about the reviews were that nobody liked the power button, and it didn't have a native email app. The email app thing is strange, and how bad can a power button really be?<p>I'n keen to hear what return numbers are like in the coming weeks. That would probably tell more about the device than many of the professional reviews.

I admit to being surprised, but maybe I'm just too blind to RIM.<p>Be curious to see how things shift once the Asus Transformer and the Tab 10.1 hit. I know I'm planning to check them out and see if either feels like it will fit my needs.

These numbers are dubious: <a href="http://tomstechblog.com/post/Blackberry-Playbook-Selling-Well-After-All-Not-So-Faste280a6.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://tomstechblog.com/post/Blackberry-Playbook-Selling-Wel...</a>

Pretty surprising though. With the amount of stick the Playbook got before its release and all the adverts for the other two, didn't see that coming at all.
