In this week’s Gadget Lab podcast, Dylan Tweney and Mike Isaac discuss the upcoming BlackBerry PlayBook. We got one, and we tested it. Bottom line? It looks great, but it’s missing a few big things — like an e-mail client. Its support for Adobe Flash is causing us concern too, because Flash doesn’t run stably yet.

After that, Mike Calore comes on to talk about the Eye-Fi Mobile X2, a kind of amped-up SD card for your camera that also doubles as a Wi-Fi adapter. The newest version can transmit photos directly to your smartphone: no computer or Wi-Fi network required. Instagram fans, rejoice!
