New user here too:

What we've done so far is "sideload" Kindle (android) - seems to work perfectly and was easy to do.

Movies - I just wirelessly "dragged and dropped" the existing films from the PC (AVI formats etc) into the PB video folder and they seem to work fine with the bundled player.

Not had much chance to look into other stuff yet so I'll keep an eye on here!

To sideload watch this and download the DDPB loader from the links below the video.

Pretty straight forward.

#Edit - you should just need link1 and look in link3 for kindle.

Stock music player syncs with i-tunes.
Bought a bluetooth keyboard for mine - logitech one works fine
I'm using Wunderlist as an app and works perfectly between phone, pc, blackberry.
You can download from bb app world straight to pc so no need for bb phone if you haven't got one. All the various bits and bobs like splashtop, docs to go, evernote, drop box etc available for playbook.
That should keep you going for a bit.
