I don't think we're actually using a full gigabyte of memory, but I do think that I'm bumping into whatever portion of memory is reserved for Bridge apps in the above scenario. It's only after I closed the Bridge Browser that I could launch additional Bridge apps. If I tried to open MemoPad or Tasks the apps would quit instantly. For example, I had AnandTech loaded in the Bridge Browser with Messages, Calendar and Contacts open alongside it.

If you've got a web page loaded in the Bridge Browser, you'll only be able to open a maximum of three other Bridge apps before you run out of memory. Despite the PlayBook having a 1GB of LP-DDR2 memory on-board, this thing can run out of memory quickly - particularly when multitasking with BlackBerry Bridge apps.
