You can turn down (or up) the keyboard sound. In System Menu > Keyboard, use the Keyboard Feeback slider to adjust the volume.

*facepalm*

Thanks for that. Article updated.
For balance.... Given that my iPad wont play half the clips on youtube as they're "unsupported format". and my Asus xformer works best with MK Player.... Just how restrictive are the codecs in the real world?

As someone still interested in the 7" format for work I'd be really interested to know whether this gadget is better placed than my iPad/Asus.

Password thing is a pain but given that my work based iPad needs a password to wake PLUS a password for ALL mail app initiations (Yes... two passwords if it goes to sleep; just the one if I press the wrong button and exit mail when I meant to go back. Great !!!)..... the playbook sounds like half the pain, therefopre twice as good..

So there's no problems with youtube at all.

And there is this spec sheet that shows the full codec support on page 3: http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/deliverables/27267/Supported_Media_Types_on_BlackBerry_Tablets_(English).pdf

if a comparison is going to be made with other tablets then it is criminal not to mention price. How many of these could you own for each iPad2, one in each hand and one to sit on.

My 16gig playbook
PurpleSkys Updated - 1st Mar 2012
Cost $199.00 just before Christmas, I think they are going for the same now. The screen may not be as big as I would like, but overall, I like my playbook. I believe the IPad is still running around 400 for their 16gig tablet.
