BlackBerry PlayBook Tips for All RIM Tablet Users

11.05.2011

Your PlayBook apps will now continue to run even after you've navigated away from them.

The current version of RIM's BlackBerry PlayBook tablet is Wi-Fi-only, though , and others are expected this summer. As such, you'll want to familiarize yourself with the various PlayBook Wi-Fi settings, since you'll presumably be using Wi-Fi often.

When, or if, you connect a BlackBerry smartphone to your PlayBook using BlackBerry Bridge, the tablet automatically imports your Wi-Fi profiles, so you don't have to re-enter all of your network information.

But sometimes you're in areas with more than one available Wi-Fi network. Thankfully, the PlayBook lets you prioritize your networks, so you connect to the network of choice first.
