it was excruciating watching him type with one finger on the iPad. I guess RIM didn't want to show how fast it is to type on a full-sized keyboard. The rendering speed is impressive, but the whole video seemed like it was directed to geeks, rather than showing how useful the Playbook is in real life. I wonder how much faster the 2011 iPad will be with new hardware.

All those tech features are nice, but those pages sure look a lot better on the iPad. 🙂

except that the flash interface isn't richer. it's chunky and slow. the list below is more direct, searchable, and functional.
