Apple has pretty much rendered them obsolete, despite shilling an inferior product. Aside from the fact that the playbook won't turn on, the playbook trounces the ipad in every way.

I tried debricking this pile of guano two days ago to no avail. Going to contact customer support on my off day (since I'll be on the phone with Istanbul for a good 2 hours atleast) and have these arse RIMs set things straight. 1 yr warranty on playbooks, but the whole process is supposed to be an ordeal.

looking to buy a reliable 1-2TB External hdd ... anyone can reco me one?

something you personally have experience with?

 

[swizzlenuts]

Don't buy an external hard drive, unless you plan on buying it, transferring files to the drive then turning it off; the only time you should ever turn it on is when you need to back up stuff.

Buy a nice 2 TB internal drive. They are so cheap.

ok, why is that?
