I must say, I am quite impressed thus far with my Playbook. I dug up an old BT keyboard that is at least 2 years old (Think Outside Keyboard - Dell branded) which didn't work with most new devices (no driver support for it anymore). However, I thought I'd give it a quick try with the Playbook, and, wouldn't you know it, it paired flawlessly on the first try! The Playbook knew exactly what keyboard it was, and now it works like a charm! I am impressed...

Now, a quick question to you all. Will the battery charge while the device is powered down completely? It may seem like a dumb question, but I tried charging it while off and it didn't charge. It is charging while powered on. Any thoughts on this?
