    This Blackberry tablet is pre-installed with Flash, Adobe to read pdf files, and limited versions of Word and Excel.

    2 1/2 years ago it was released at $500, but by 2 years ago I bought it new for $200.

    The price came down because you fools believe that Apple propaganda! Good Canadian company, Blackberry. I feel sorry for them.

    I don't think so.

    When there's flash ads running on the site (for animations), I can see in Activity Monitor that flash player is consuming gobs of memory and CPU usage. Animated gifs use a very tiny fraction of the memory and CPU.

    CPU use means battery drain.

    So the whole time you're reading a page with flash ad on a tablet, drain drain drain.
