Just purchased a blackberry playbook and am unhappy with the power-up issue. Also most gadgets will allow you to work with it while charging–not so with this gizzmo.

what power-up issue? And yes, you can use it while it is plugged into the wall charging.

The PlayBook does let you use it while charging. If it’s totally drained and turned off, plug it in to the charger. Then after a few seconds the LED indicator will glow red for a moment then turn off. Then after a few more moments the green indicator will come on glowing bright then dim…. At this point you can press the power button. The green LED will turn off and the unit will power-up. You can then use it while it’s charging. No problem.
