Or just don't use Android and don't worry about flashing or having to be cautious of what you download, where you visit, running a virus scanner etc. Wasn't this one of the biggest arguments on /. forever for why to use Linux over windows?

Comment Re:Development Environmemt (Score 2) 341

I develop for BB and Android as well and I completely disagree. BB is far easier to develop for if you know what you're doing. BB has excellent APIs that you can do almost anything with. Android still lacks basic stuff like Calender integration. While you can still acheive what you want there's nothing to say it will work in future versions of the OS and directly dealing with the databases is ridiculous. I'd have to say that there's as much complaining in Android related development threads as I've seen in BB ones.

The PlayBook doesn't need another device to get online. It just needs WiFi, you can connect to home WiFi no problem. Now if you're talking about it not having a 3G/4G connection I'd argue that no one really cares and the sales figures of iPad and other tablets 3G/4G versions would back up my argument 100%.
