Is there any email client for BlackBerry PlayBook?

Not unless you bridge it to a BlackBerry.

Sitting back with my popcorn.

The iPad has an email client and doesn't need to be bridged to any other device.

(Don't want NJ's popcorn to go to waste.)

Yeah but does the iPad have a native calendar client?

I think RIM should learn a lot from other competitor like Apple.
Email is the most important thing.
I am very disappointed with this PlayBook. I plan to sell it.

Native email client for Playbook, follow these instructions:

Sign up for the 2.0 Beta
Side load K9 email client for Andriod from from Crackberry.com site
Run native email client.

That might be the furthest thing from "native" I've ever heard.

Personally, I'm glad that the PlayBook reads the email, calendar, etc directly from my BlackBerry without having to have a separate action.

Agreed! Plus, in my experience, Touchdown is a much better email client than K-9.

I think Touchdown is by far the best Android e-mail client. Need it because "native" Android clients have never heard of "tasks"...

Sorry but I lool'd

When the playbook looks too much like the iPad, people will say that RIM copied/lacks imagination and so on...

same with Windows Vista and MacOS X back then.
