Personally, I think this is huge.
I think 90% of PB owners will buy at least 1 Angry Birds game.
At $4.99 a pop... that is a very healthy profit over minimal costs.
When all the other app vendors see Rovio make a killing, the rest will jump in fast IMO.
I think $5 is pretty steep for a game. I personally don't see the fascination with Birds. Probably just me though. I would pay that for more useful things, but not a game.
Yep Sam, I'm with you. I'd pay maybe $2.99 max for that game.
I can see EA charging more for their games due to the graphic contents etc and in relationship to full size video/computer games an EA game for the PB is cheaper but this is just angry birds with okay graphics... nothing like Need for Speed...
I'm sure tho that there'll be people who'll pay that much for the game and it will show the opportunities for other major developers.
At least this will keep iPad users from throwing the "you can't play Angry Birds" line at us anymore.
Hopefully this means that more developers are starting to take the Playbook seriously.

I agree with you all. But the HD version for iPad is $4.99. So there's really no big difference unless you have an iTouch or iPhone
Good point Corey. I wouldn't buy it if it cost more than iPad but apparently it does not. So fine.
It's already in the Top Paid app list with at least 4 stars if I recall. I would love to see Words with Friends next.
I'm late to the conversation, but I think its a big deal that Angry Birds is on the PlayBook. It shows that at least one of the major developers out there has faith in the QNX platform. Hopefully more follow suit. And I agree with Daniel, Words with Friends would be a great next addition.
It would be nice to see Words With Friends. My wife loves to play it on Facebook with the laptop and my kids play on their iPhones. While I would love to see more professional apps, unfortunately these days it is games that make people take a platform seriously.
Agreed, Bob. We definitely need more "professional" apps for PB. Games are fun but sometime we have to work to pay the bills
Also, it's hard to call it a "Professional Grade Tablet" when it doesn't have Remote Desktop, Teamviewer, GotoMeeting, Skype, or even Microsoft VPN.
Only way the flood gates will open if other devs see how successful angry birds are on this platform. They gone come faster and quicker this is just a test and the beginning of good things to come.
