The BlackBerry PlayBook lends itself more to mobility supporting doing things on the go than those 10.1-inch tablets that are large and hard to use on the go. It is small in size, but its resolution is not. The BB-PlayBook screen boasts an impressive 1024x600 pixels, close to the 1200x800 the 10.1-inch Motorola Xoom runs at, and even closer to the iPad 2’s 1024x768 pixels. So videos and music on PlayBook looks gorgeous.

 

Want to transfer and play TiVo, AVCHD MTS/M2TS, MOD, MOV, MKV, MXF, EVO and other unsupported videos on PlayBook? A top BlackBerry PlayBook Video Converter is needed, which can help you convert any video to PlayBook supported video format without quality loss. Or, you can use an easy-to-use yet professional Blu-ray/DVD to PlayBook Converter to rip Blu-ray and DVD movies to BB-PlayBook playable videos.
