  1. The physical size Playbook product position is different from other tablets. IPAD-sized 9.7-inch Dell Streak while measuring 5 inches. In addition to the dimensions of 130mm x 193mm x Playbook 10mm, this product is also trying to compete with other tablets by placing the processor 1 GHz dual-core processor, 1 GB RAM memory, micro-HDMI outputs, and the ability of symmetrical dual-core processing. Another interesting point is the Playbook has two cameras, rear-facing (5MP) and front-facing (3MP).
