omosuji: please check previous posts .name of shop and address is there.
You will need to activate the pb after purchase, there are these guys who will ask for 15k to do that for you. However if you read through the whole tread , instructions on how to do this has also been posted. Cheers

was at slot same morning,same thing was going for 60k. The koko however is to shine your eyes. Revive at ikeja sell refurbish. Did not ask for their price though. Is pb really selling ? Either here or abroad. Pb share of the tablet market is just 2%. you can actually count the number of shops selling pb in computer village. You go waka small before you see to buy.

TCD: there are indications certain android apps might not work with 2.1. Encountered any so far?

see the thing if u update to 2.1 beta without wiping all yur apps will work fine but yur battery will drain fast, if u wipe it sorry most android apps wont work,but your battery will be normal

TCD: if you wipe a playbook it takes you through the whole setup process again and it'll ask you to download the latest update. Found that out yesterday when I wiped.

Not saying your PB is refurbished but 52k for a 64gb sounds very enticing that's like $328. Meanwhile RIM retails for $299 on their website. Add shipping costs, customs, profit etc. Abi those people no like profit or maybe coz nobody dey buy they just slashed prices to clear stock. Anyway, the koko of my story, make una shine eye wella before you buy o.

i tire for nija o.it has become the norm for sellers of products to unbox them. My thinking is that unboxing of products should be done by the buyer,that way you can Be sure of the integrity of the the product to some extent.

my experience, i upgraded to 2.1 beta my android apps worked well but when i tried to sideload new ones while on os 2.1 beta, didnt work . The apps sideloaded but wouldnt launch. also my browser flash had issues, youtube videos weren't playing well. So i wiped, downgraded back to 2.0.1.358, sideloaded all my android apps, then uograded to 2.1 beta again, evrything now works even when i sideload android apps on the beta they run perfectly. My battery has no issues too.

Please how do I upgrade to 7.1 os for my touch 2 and also to 2.1 for my playbook? This joining d guys in gadget league is becoming exhausting!

Thanks TCD for all the links. Does swarm and playtorrent work?

do you have a good wifi connection available?

omosuji: Thanks TCD for all the links. Does swarm and playtorrent work?

yes, but doesn't work with bridge, You need Wifi.

Read that the new 2.1 beta is mostly for developers.

please what are the new features and why is it necessary to update to 2.1 beta if am not a developer?

and please geeks can someone tell me how i can register my id on my playbook cos it keeps telling me i need wife connection.

am guessing some of u guys aint veing dis problem.

also my emails not yet working on playbook yet also cant open app world.

i use mtn bbc monthly (perhaps dats d issue am not sure)

TCD: this is so bad, I don't trust all these naija stores, decided to pre-order mine from Canada. At least I'm sure of what I'm buying. I agree you should look to buying a new one, this has gone on long enough.

abeg, how did you go about the pre-ordering from canada?

TCD: do you have a good wifi connection available?

No i use starcomms on my laptop.
mtn for bis though am on bbc monthly. (d one for 1500 a month)

Yes the os 2.1 beta is mainly for developers to test their apps as well as test the general functionality of the OS any problems is reported and RIM can make final changes before it's officially released to everybody.

The e functionality of the OS 2.1, the most obvious would be android applications able to run on separate windows, it brings true multitasking for Android apps. Other changes are subtle as in improved browser performance etc. And No it isn't necessary to update. RIM will release the official version as soon as beta testing is over and they make necessary tweaks. So you can wait till then. Busybodies like me were just itching to try it out

Now, you need a wifi connection to register your BlackBerry ID, can't be done through blackberry bridge. So also app world, you need a wifi connection to access app world. For directions on how to turn your our starcomms modem Internet to WIFI accessible by the playbook, scroll a few pages back.

Just downloaded the O.S but how can we use dis dingleberry to update d OS of a new bb playbook.

mikoa: Just downloaded the O.S but how can we use dis dingleberry to update d OS of a new bb playbook.

A new playbook? C'est ne pas possibles. Dingleberry requires development mode be on just like ddpb. A new playbook you cannot set development mode except you have completed the set up process. So if you want update a new playbook use any of the several methods enumerated before not dingle.
