With the PlayBook 2.0 software update, the PlayBook’s functionality has increased significantly.  In addition to getting native email, calendar and contacts (all with LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter fully integrated) PlayBook 2.0 now has the fastest mobile browser.  Its browser scores 354 points in the HTML5 test, much higher than the iPad 2′s 308 points.  Many great games have also launched on the PlayBook recently, making gaming on the tablet very enjoyable.  At $199, the PlayBook is simply a bargain.
