@davebarnes App World opened to PlayBook app submissions YESTERDAY! Even then, this is only for apps that have been developed with the beta SDK. We have no guarantee they won't require modification for the final release.
ZDnet is wrong about the browser. Visit YouTube and you can find several demonstrations of it, they've showed it off every previous demo.
The PlayBook's competition is the iPad 2, but unlike many of the Android tablets RIM is using hardware that can compete with the next generation of tablets. It's using the fastest processors and most powerful GPU they could find, they're so new the chips are only available in sample quantities, what more could you ask for?
As for the OS, did you even watch the demo? It's obviously still in development, but also obviously significantly underway. Some apps are still buggy, it is a BETA, but it looks like it can become a real platform in the next 2-3 months.
Congratulations, you've succeeded in displaying complete and total ignorance of the PlayBook. Please check facts so you don't look ridiculous.
