NOT>>> they would start to load and then stopped.. we even upgraded the adobe in it to 10.1. and seeing as how the playbook has 10.1 i dont forsee them being able to play them either which will be a bummer. i would like to be able to tend to my frontierville or my stoves while at work on my 1 hour lunch break.

RIM bought QNX and they built the blackberry tablet OS. ipad cannot do true multitasking like this! also, qnx software is so powerful that when quad core processors and such make there way onto tablets in the future qnx can handle it. i don’t think other os will be able to work as well.

Give the user a device with peripherals that will move them away form other operating systems to yours 100% of the time. . . otherwise it’s just too easy and inviting for a user to leave your environment for another.
