close application you sort of swipe them off and they actually do continue to run in the background full flash support and of course html5 the HDMI video out on the bottom some of the glaring omissions however with the playbook there is not a native mail or calendar application yet those are coming soon there also be coming soon will be full support for Android applications compared to pick this up in 16 32 or 64 gig configurations for $4.99 $5.99 or $6.99 respectively let's go ahead and bring in a real quick size comparison here is the iPhone 4 to sort of see how small this really is you can see the on-screen keyboard there popped up let's also bring in one of the playbooks competitors the iPad 2 got right here for a comparison you can see how small the seven-inch grain really is on the PlayBook this is very portable really something that you could carry with you almost throw into a jacket pockets really I wouldn't say jeans unless you're wearing some big baggy jeans but it's got a really nice feel to it curious how the seven-inch screen is going to react and how it's gonna work having a screen smaller than I have used to and I guys i am john r Ettinger from TechnoBuffalo we're gonna be putting this guy through a ton of paces and a lot of reviews coming up so anything that you want to see particular about the BlackBerry PlayBook be sure to leave your message down below I'll see the next video bye bye
