Suggestions from a fan

Question

The BB Playbook is now cheap as ever. but i think its being let-down by an immature, not-so well-developed, "closed-platform", unsupported, backward OS. 
The competition is getting hotter & crowded by this year as everyone and you RIM knows. iPad 3, Google Tablet, Windows 8 Tablet, ice Cream Sandwich 4.+, etc.
Here are my suggestions on how to better the Playbook to best suit everyone:
1. Unlocked Bluetooth - for easier sending & receiving files from non-RIM devices
A lack of SD card meant the only way to upload photos to the PB is via connecting to a PC or Mac, via email and SHOULD be via bluetooth as well. security issue? well, bt-transfer is being done for years now. until today with Symbian, Android and iOS devices all doing it. why not RIMs?
2. Documents - improved & better support for most "office"-type files such as PDF, DOC, XLS with easier attaching to emails
3. Camera - basic & in-built features such as red-eye reduction, image stabilasation, smooth 30fps, greater photo compression (for less memeory usage), photo thumbnails (for easier access to a photo just taken), geo-tagging, panorama, high night sensitivity, autofocus, stereo sound and manual zooming whilst recording SHOULD be there. also it should be "compatible" to be used for video-chatting via 3rd-party BB & Android apps (facbook chat, Skype, etc.)
4. GPS - if a chip is there it should be unlocked and make full use of. and the ability to use the chip even in offline mode
5. Music - improved equalizer settings, ability to assign EQs to multiple songs, ability to edit/change/modify an EQ setting (i.e.Custom setting) & some form of surround sound option
6. Video - improved format & codecs support (to include Divx & AVI) plus some form of surround sound option when watching a movie
7. Photo - include a free, easy-to-use, user-friendly photo editing software similar to Picassa or iPhoto
8. Updates - to be done via Wifi for free and to be more often like in iOS devices and unlike 6-9 months of wait for Android devices.
9. cheaper apps, cheaper 3rd-party compatible accesories.
10. integrated all-in-one email and SNS app 
11. more multitasking options, easier shortcuts, improved battery life and overall performace improvements.
12. make the Playbook OS more open and available to all of them developers. tell them that with an excellent specs the OS should be exploited and make it more in-tune with itself.
 With your help as developers, makers, publishers of apps & softwares i hope this will help you and us wanting to buy a Playbook in the next few months.
This is my take and so far found to be consistent with different forums and sections of the Playbook fandom.
Please...make it so!

Answer 1

I recommend Mac OS 7.6.1 on 68030 Macs. I have a Performa 405 that used to have a Revision B LC II logic board. I ran Mac OS 7.6.1 on that Mac right up until the logic board failed on me. It has since been upgraded to a LC III+ logic board. The Mac Color Classic or Mac Color Classic II are essentially all-in-one versions of the LC II & LC III+. The logic board specs are identical too except that the LC III+ is capable of running at higher resolutions than the Color Classic II due to the built in monitor it uses. You can also run System 6.0.8L if you have the original Color Classic. This is documented in 6.0.8L's Readme file too. Some games like Sierra On-Line's adventure games may run better in System 6 due to compatibility issues related to Mac OS 7.5.X. I know this because several of my adventure games have required patching/tweaking to make them run right (a Pre-Y2K date issue related to Mac OS 7.5.X's clock function).
