So, no, it doesn't have its own 3G connection. @Wes, as I understand it, the point is that you’re supposed to tether to your BlackBerry and that’s how RIM is marketing the PlayBook.

There are many different manufacturers of computers cars even toilet paper. Nobody copied anyone ... There are just different choices. The blackberry version has a much better web browsing capability compared to the iPad. It seems like the Samsung tablet has issues where the Android OS is not optimized for the larger screen (larger compared to the smartphones it was created for). In a few mnths iPad2 ... Newer Andriod? Blackberry, Apple, Andriod (Samsung etc.) Three choices for different people. Facebook crowd - Andriod LinkedIn crowd - Blackberry Apple? - people who like to wear what the crowd wears and drive BMWs Don't get it confused I was just on Facebook and I am typing this from my Blackberry, but there was a study a few mths ago linking people with certain incomes to certain social networking sites. Different choices for different people. Multiple choices are good ... Pick your choice not what your cool cousin Joey told you was cool, because he only heard it from Vinny in his morning math class, who heard it from the cool kids who tried to go to website and couldn't view it from their iPads since it required Adobe Flash.

Three choices for different people.
