This blog post serves to shed a bit of light on how to use Wifi file transfer without going to your computer.
Requirements:
On your PlayBook you will need aVNC from AiFlex.
On your computer you will need tightVNC installed.
1. Connect your PlayBook to your pc using aVNC and tightVNC, your desktop should now be visible on the PlayBook.
2. From your PlayBook, open the my computer and enter your PlayBook's ip address into the address bar \\******** and hit return now you're connected to your tablet by wifi without going to your your computer
3. Navigate to the media folder of your choice on the tablet, open the folder on your computer that contain the files to be transferred.
4. Select file by tapping on it once and holding it down by keeping your finger on the PlayBook's screen, without lifting finger off, drag the file across to the PlayBook's media folder, you should see the copying file box comeup.
You have just copied a file from your PC to your PlayBook without going to your physical machine.

The Black Gift.
I know I'm a bit late with this but here goes.
As promised RIM has started rolling out free premium apps to users in showing their gratitude to the millions of users that was affected during the blackout last week.
The first and only app for now is the DriveSafe.ly app that reads and responds to your text messages, emails and twitter messages using voice recognition, its has proven to be an interesting application that drains your battery.
With that said, it leaves me wondering if RIM will release any useful apps that are keepers or they will use the opportunity to do spring cleaning in the fall by offering us stuff for free that wouldn't sell because people see them as useless?
But I still would like to say thank you to RIM's management for having the forsight and "testicular fortitude" to have taken the decision to compensate users for loss of use (like a good insurance company) they paid out to you for damages and in turn you renew your premiums by sticking with them.
From the beginning of the blackout I wondered if they would make such a gesture, I even discussed it with my good friend @79stanger who's only concern at the time was getting back full service from RIM.
Even though I pondered about it many times, if they didn't opt to compensate I will still and always be pro BlackBerry, but they did and in doing so made alot of peoples Day.
Thank you to the RIM team!
