Chris Eubank Sr Robbed In London

Thought I'd quickly write about this due to me writing a few posts lately about Rolex watches being robbed off people's wrists in the UK, with the most recent incident taking place in London. While in London, boxings former Super Middleweight Champion Chris Eubank Senior was robbed of his Louis Vuitton manbag.

Apparently, the thief snatched the bag and ran off. Just goes to show how fast a mugging can take place. It can happen to anyone. Read more about this story on badlefthook.



This isn't the first time Chris Eubank Sr has been robbed. In the late 1990's he was robbed of £100,000 worth of  jewellery while onboard a train. It seems like this one was a distraction robbery. Read more about this story on theargus.co.uk.

Eubank Jr has also been a victim of crime. He had his house in Brighton robbed a few years back, and I believe the thieves got away with items totalling a good number of thousands. I'm not sure if the people responsible were ever caught.

There was some CCTV footage of the men snooping around his house but it wasn't very good quality. I think Eubank Jr has since increased his home security, including a much needed upgrade of his CCTV system.

Rolex Robbery At Knife Point In London | GMT-Master II 116...

Late September 2021, another Rolex Robbery At Knife Point In London [Ulster terrace]. Watch model: Rolex GMT-Master II 116710LN. Serial Number: 7H8F5886. Watch thefts are now very common in the UK.


Take precautions if you are someone who wears an expensive watch out in public. Especially in cities such as London, Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester. But it can happen anywhere, so be aware of your surroundings. Or, alternatively, just buy yourself a Casio.

Teclast P20HD Hands On Look

Teclast P20HD Android 10 Tablet: When looking at other tablet choices at the same price point in the UK, other than a few [ one here ], there really isn't much that stands out all that much. But this one is pretty good for the money. Check out the video review by Geeky Stuff below

Here is a review by Robin Wong on the tablet I wrote about in a previous post, the Teclast P20HD. This is a fairly extensive hands on look at this device. I trust Robin Wongs opinion, he puts out some great content over at his blog. https://robinwong.blogspot.com. He rates the tablet highly. You can read his review rather than watch the video here: https://robinwong.blogspot.com/2020/08/best-budget-10-inch-android-tablet.html

Teclast #Review #not the #8Inch

Teclast P20HD Android 10 Tablet

When looking at other tablet choices at the same price point in the UK, other than a few [one here], there really isn't much that stands out. They all have some bad reviews, as well as many good reviews, but it is hard to find a tablet with a high consistency for remaining reliable when its been used daily over the course of a few years. Saying that, even within just one year of owning a budget tablet, for many models the cracks have already started to surface.





Choices are limited, and that's why the Teclast P20HD is such an attractive package. It's quite new on the scene. As a result it looks the most up-to-date, sleek, and has the most recent upgrades possible for such a low price. The spec is really high, and the performance is better than average. Considering the high specification and build quality, this model offers excellent value for money.

Teclast P20HD Fast Spec


  • 10.1" HD display [1900 by 1200 IPS]
  • Android 10 with no bloatware
  • 1.6 GHz Octa Core Processor [8 cores]
  • 4GB RAM
  • 64GB storage
  • Bluetooth 5.0
  • SIM Card ready [4G] [Phablet]
  • SD card slot [max 512GB]
  • WiFi
  • GPS
  • Twin speakers
  • Mic
  • Headphone port
  • Metal back finish


With a high spec and such a cheap price some corners do have to be cut. So where are they in this model. Well, the battery life is average at best. However, I have read of a few purchasers complaining about abismal battery drain. So perhaps some batteries are either faulty or just very bad quality and don't last very long.

Dual cameras are a little grainy by today's standards. But at this price point that is to be expected. Does anyone take pictures with their tablet anyway. For applications like Zoom or Skype the camera quality is good enough to do the job.

Speakers are a subject open to debate. The big majority of users thing they are okay, but some complain about how "tinny" and cheap they sound. Welcome to the world of cheap tablets, where many of them sound like Smartphones playing music out loud. It's nothing new or exclusive to the Teclast P20HD.

Other than some sporadic problems with the touchscreen and some incompatible Apps, the issues with this model are pretty much the standard widely seen in tablets within this price range and beyond.

I should add, most reviews are positive for the P20HD, so don't let this list of problems put you off. I'm just being extra by scanning the 1 and 2 star reviews. Most reviewers do give it a full 5 stars, so buyers are pleased with the tablet overall for the price they paid. Definitely within the top 5 best tablets for the price. Android 11 OS would have been nice but Android 10 is more than good enough.

BOBLOV WN9 1296p Bodycam

Sometimes, or a lot of the time when you hear of those brand names that no ones heard of before the products are usually trash. But with BOBLOV, they do actually have some pretty good products in their range. In particular, their bodycams. The BOBLOV WN9 is one of them. It's hard to find it for sale on the major outlets online, but its still a really good bodycam for the price.

BOBLOV_KJ21_1296P_Body_Camera_UK
 

Model pictured: Boblov KJ21 1296p

 
Some professional photographers that I follow on YouTube, who are basically experts when it comes to cameras / video footage actually recommend the BOBLOV WN9 over some GoPro models due to the better battery duration available with the BOBLOV WN9. The only downfall of this model is that it doesn't have any stabilization features. 


Boblov KJ21 1296p Review

 
The reviews for the KJ21 are very positive. If you can't find the WN9, the newer model, the KJ21, is a great alternative. While it also does not have stabilization, there are many features that sort of make up for that. Some of those include: Infrared, Night Vision, 1080p HD recording, SD card slot which can hold up to 128GB, long standby and approximately 10 Hours of recording time @ 1080P.

The Boblov KJ21  is also widely reported as having good audio recording quality and a nice wide angle lens for broad view video capture. Great for police, doormen, photography auditing, security work, ghost hunting / paranormal / UFOs, personal security, dog walking etc.

Portable body cams are becoming more common these days, and with the state that the world is in, where crimes of all types are on the rise, not just in the UK but pretty much everywhere, I can see why the demand for these items is at an all time high.

Ricoh Caplio RX Digital Camera

Found this Ricoh Caplio RX Digital Camera for sale in a second hand shop [thrift store in the US] for £1, so I thought I'd buy it for a laugh and see what its like. Came practically brand new in the box with all accessories. It's very old and very "plasticy" for a digital camera, only packing 3.2 mega pixels [CCD sensor] and an optical 3.6x wide zoom.

Ricoh_Caplio_RX_Digital_Camera

But its not that old that it doesn't take a normal SD card, which is good. I've put a 1GB SD card inside and it works well, no errors. Takes two AA battery's, which last a long time, and has a small but useful set of modes and settings. Some of those include Macro [good], Landscape, Portrait, Text [whiter than white - see below] and Sport Mode [pretty good].

Ricoh_Caplio_RX_Sample_Image_Sports_Mode

Ricoh state that the Caplio RX can also use a Li-ion battery, so it seems like it has an old school dual battery option. If they haven't already, big camera brands should bring this feature back into today's up-to-date cameras.

It can even record video footage. But the highest quality is 320. Not even 360p. This camera was released when video capability on cameras was in its infancy. Shows you just how old this digital camera is.

But sometimes less is more, and older technology now feels a bit more of a novetly. Having to make use of what you have got rather than having everything in a camera is more pleasing to me.

camera-text-mode-whitest-ever

Text Mode is super white and bold


But that only goes as far as the image quality and having limited settings and features. Video footage is a different matter altogether. I'd rather not use the video in camera like this at all, that's how bad it is by today's standards.

Elephants-twins-2021-newspaper_UK

Here are the Elephants talked about in the text above


I was however a bit disappointed to discover that this camera does not have any colour adjust settings like sepia, vivid, and my favourite, black and white. It's just in constant normal mode. But that's still alright, I can't expect everything for a pound.

patterns_ricoh_sample

The zoom isn't very good. Once the zoom is applied, at any length, the quality takes a nose dive. Picture quality isn't the best anyway so as you can imagine, it's pretty terrible with zoom. Without zoom the quality is much better, but just about acceptable [at least to me] in today's world of super sharp, detailed images that have been edited / enhanced beyond belief.

That is, if they're not blurred like a lot of them are. If images taken with the Ricoh Caplio RX are kept small, and the camera is in focus / has good stability etc, they are not too bad.

Overall, if you're into older digital cameras and can find a Caplio RX for sale @ £1 - £5, it's worth buying to mess around with. But if I had to pick an older camera and I only had say £10 to spend, it would not be spent on a Caplio RX. There are much better options out there.

Ship_matchbox


Two that stand out for me are the older Panasonic Lumix models, like the TZ1 and TZ3, and some of the old Canon IXUS models. Both the Lumix and IXUS models are still capable of taking some really impressive pictures considering how old they now are.

Although I will say, the Caplio RX is definitely better than both the Lumix TZ1 and TZ3 when taking pictures indoors. And I know this first hand as I own both models.

Kensington Ave After The Clean Up [At Night]

Here is some night time footage by HoodTime of Kensington Ave after the so called "Clean Up". Doesn't really look that cleaned up. And some recent day time videos of the same area aready show that the streets are not far off how they were before the clean up. Definitely not as bad but not that far off.


Where are all these people to go? To the outskirts, some other street. Wherever they go they then become the new areas problem, and its the normal resisdents that suffer the most. If they are truly homeless, something really needs to be done to at least rehouse them.

I say if they are truly homeless because I know of people where I live in the UK that sit outside on the streets all day begging for money that appear to be homeless but they are not.

They actually have nice flats [apartments], and claim all the benefits available to them. Plus they beg all day and earn anywhere between £20 - £50 +. So in reality they end up earning quite a lot of money each week. Sadly, it all goes on drugs [crack, Fentanyl, heroin, spice etc]. More Kensington Videos here and here.

Kensington Ave Philadelphia 2021

This video gives a good insight of Kensington Ave Philadelphia in 2021. The footage was shot between April and May 2021. The streets are an absolute mess. There was a clean up taking place a few days ago [August 2021], but it looks to have had limited success.

The video below is quite disturbing. The woman on the floor freaking out @ 10:20 looks as though she is a victim of demonic possession. Probably just the drugs perhaps. Still very sad to see.


Watching videos of "after the clean up" daytime and night time footage, it appears the homeless people, along with all the rubbish that accumulates in the street, is starting to rise again. It seems like the clean up lasted, like around a day. I may post a video of after the clean up if I get time. More footage here

Zombie Skid Row Kensington Philadelphia

America is looking more like a third world country everyday. It's almost unrecognizable. Some refer to it as a zombie apocalypse. Many of the videos showing what the Kensington area is like today in 2021 are not only very revealing to see what some parts of the USA have become, but also very depressing.

The drug and homeless problem there is totally out of control. Not to mention the high crime rate which goes hand in hand with drug addiction and homelessness. Kensington Ave has become a very dirty, dangerous area.


Ravaged and enslaved by drugs, these lost tormented souls are addicted to the escapism and quick-fix euphoria substance abuse provides. It really is a sorry sight, and a bad time for America as a whole.

Kensington Clean Up


There was a "clean up" taking place a few days ago, where people were being moved on and the streets were getting the biggest clean up in years. I don't know the results of the clean up, but the big question is - if the operation was a success - how long will it last. And where are all these people going to be moved to.

Abandonment


Areas like Kensington are becoming more common in the USA. Oregon, Skid Row, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Hollywood, and there are many others. Some of the others might not be as bad as the five mentioned in this post, but they are certainly heading in the same direction.

And then there's the murder rate. If I'm not mistaken, America is seeing one of the biggest rises in murders across the whole country. The statistics are through the roof, especially when it comes to shootings.

I've always wanted to visit the USA, ever since I was a kid. Not anymore. I know there are still some really nice parts, but overall I think It's too dangerous and has lost its appeal.

When looking at the USA's crime rate, housing, infrastructure, judicial system, healthcare, mass immigration, mental health crisis, abandoned buildings, towns, cities, and just about everything else, I can't help but think that the American Government has completely abandoned its people.

Priorities


America has the largest military budget in the world, spending $778 Billion U.S. dollars in 2020. As well as that, and with a growing number of areas within the US poverty-stricken, with many of the people practically destitute or heading that way, America still gives Billions of Dollars in "aid" each year without fail to Israel, which is not a poor country. That money would be much better spent at home.

Just those two facts alone coupled with America's obvious decline, which almost seems deliberate, gives a clear indication of where the American Governments priorities lie. And they are not with the American people or the well-being of the country, that's for sure.

Pearl Ann Cruz - Medical Detectives

Been on a bit of a Medical Detectives series binge over the last few days, and one case that got my attention was the 2004 murder of Diane Tilly. She was raped and killed for around $400. That episode is: Medical Detectives (Forensic Files) - Season 12, Episode 6 - Transaction Failed. You can watch it below.


Ronnie Joe Neal and his daughter, Pearl Ann Cruz, were convicted of the killing in 2006. Ronnie Joe Neal [the trigger man] was sentenced to death and Pearl Ann Cruz, who was just 15 years old when the crime was carried out received a 30 year sentence.

Ronnie Joe Neal commited suicide in 2010. Pearl Ann Cruz was paroled in 2010 [Austin, Texas], serving between 4 - 5 years in prison of a 30 year sentence.

While some say she was just a kid at the time of the crime, and that she was the victim of extensive abuse growing up, it does seem like she got off quite lightly considering the severity of the crime and the fairly significant role she played in that crime which resulted in the murder of Diane Tilly.

I Love Old Resistors

Old resistors are nice to look at. I really like the older ones. They are more shiny, almost ceramic in appearance. I think there are some that are actually made from ceramics, but I don't think the ones in the picture below are ceramic, they just look like they are.

I_Love_Old_Resistors

Old Resistors inside a VHS player

The colour ring combinations are so varied. I know the colours are actually codes and mean certain things, but I do not know what they mean. I'm not really into electronics. I just like how nice they look. Imagine a lamp shaped as a resistor and the only thing that lights up are the rings.

And they don't light up in your average white / yellow light like a normal lamp, they light up the same colour as they are coded / coloured. That would be amazing. A nice ambient resistor lamp. Someone should come up with a nice design for something like that. I bet it would sell well.

A Book Not To Buy On Dark Matter

If you want to buy a book to learn more about Dark Matter, one to avoid is a book called: The Disordered Cosmos: A Journey into Dark Matter, Spacetime, and Dreams Deferred. By Chanda Prescod-Weinstein.

While it does have some good information on particle physics and cosmology, like some reviewers have also mentioned, this book is basically a look into the racist, warped mind of someone trying to convince / mentally condition their readers that anything White is bad. Everything is about colour, gender, and, of course, playing the victim.

Cosmic Queries Book

While I don't agree with his theories, and that's all they are, theories, this is a decent basic alternative that talks about Planets, Space, Dark Matter and Dark Energy etc: Cosmic Queries: StarTalk's Guide to Who We Are, How We Got Here, and Where We're Going. Neil deGrasse Tyson.


She even goes so far as to suggest the term "Dark" matter is racist and dark matter should be called something else. This book is like marxist Black Lives Matter on steroids. And I can't help but feel that its almost like the author has an agenda. Either that or she is a victim of "wokeness" to extremes that surpass total ridiculousness.

One reviewer wrote: "A book celebrating Black achievement while dismissing foundational POC achievement. Heartbreaking."

So if you want a book that claims to be about Dark Matter, but really focuses on racism, white guilt, white supremacy, white male dominance, gender, and clown world level "wokeness", this could be the book for you. I won't link to the book because it doesn't even deserve that. It's ultimately total garbage.

The Mysterious Imitatiis Hairii

What is the Imitatiis Hairii? And why has it's identity, and general information been so heavily censored. Some say Imitatiis Hairii is similar to morgellons in the fact that it is some kind of parasite of a non-natural origin [perhaps made / developed in a lab somewhere] that invades human skin and nerves.

morgellons 
Morgellons: The legitimization of a disease: A Factual Guide by the World's Leading Clinical Expert, Dr Ginger Savely


Some think morgellons don't exist at all, and it's basically a mental condition [a delusional disorder]. However, I'm not convinced. I believe it does exist and is a real, physical man-made parasite of some variety.

While morgellons are said to be worm-like in appearance [there are videos and images online but I'm not sure how genuine they are], the Imitatiis Hairii is rumored to be spider-like in appearance. Very strange. I would love to find out more about this strange and mysterious "creature".

Here is some information I found online that someone posted:

Imitatiis Hairii

"This thing was the same as the spider in the video. They collect stuff from the environment and hide under it. They love hair. I believe that they can grow any number of legs and these get attached to the nerves inside the body. I think this is Imitatiis Hairii of which has been completely removed from the internet; info is highly controlled."

If anyone knows more about Imitatiis Hairii, or better still, has an actual photograph / image that they can share or link to, I would love to take a look, and if possible add it to this post.

Shadows Of Fear TV Series DVD UK

An old series from the UK that only ran for 3 years between 1970 - 1973. It featured lots of good actors from the UK. It's quite strange to watch now, very nostalgic. And if you like that kind of thing its a really good series. I was watching the episode called: "The lesser of the two" [Godfrey Quigley, Margery Mason and Geoffrey Hughes] just today and found it to be quite good. But the thing I like most about this show is the weird intro. You can buy the full series on DVD in the UK, and surprisingly, it's very cheap. Find it for sale below.

British Made Computer Tablets

These days, with the majority of the worlds electrical production, especially computer components, now being made in Asia, You would be hard pressed to find a computer product that is 100% British made. And when you think about it, although it is quite disappointing, this does make sense. 

Mass production, constantly evolving product lines and the much lower production / manufacturing costs found abroad have basically forced businesses to outsource to Asian countries in order to make more money and compete in a world that has now made it very difficult stay afloat due to the majority of UK computer companies buying / having their products made / manufactured in Asian countries.

British_Made_Computer_Tablets_UK

 

The most "British" Tablet PC I could find. The Neocore brand has a choice of two main models. The Neocore E1, and the N1. The E1 is the flagship model which has a spec consisting of: 10.1 Inch Screen, Quad Core Processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB Storage and an SD slot capable of holding up to a half a Terabyte SD card. 

The E1 can be found for sale at the above link on Amazon and on Neocore's website. It is usually for sale on Amazon as well, but at the time of writing this post it looks to be sold out.

Can you imagine the price difference between a Tablet PC that was made in the UK, using all UK workers, UK manufacturing, and even UK components (Do the UK even produce computer components anymore on a mass scale, I don't think so) Vs the same or a very similar specifcation Tablet computer made / assembled in China using Chinese labour and components sourced from Asia.

The prices would be very different. And if selling these two competing products on the same platforms, to the same customer base (basically the whole of the UK using their own website, as well as eBay and Amazon etc), can you imagine how high the price would have to be for the British made Tablets to be able to compete and for the company producing them to make a worth while profit. The cost would more than likely be too high.

So, is there any British made tablets out there in 2021 / 2022. The closest I have found to this is from a brand called Neocore (pictured above). They claim to produce British made Tablets. Or, as they state in their product description so I'm not misleading anyone: "Neocore is an established British brand, one of the first independent tablet PCs manufacturers in the UK".

The question here, though, is how "British" are their products. Are they "manufactured" or assembled in the UK, but all the internal components are sourced from somewhere in Asia. I don't know for sure because I haven't opened one of their tablets up, but I would suspect that would be the case.

Just like it is with practically all the other brands. So, whether made in UK or not, they will almost certainly be using Chinese components somewhere in their Tablets. That is very hard to avoid these days.

Where do you think the big brands like Samsung, Apple, Asus and Huawei get all their components / sub components from. Whether that is Taiwan, Singapore, China or Malaysia. And where do you think their products are made / manufactured. 

It's mostly all done in Asia. The only exception with Apple is their Apple Mac Pro, which I understand is made in the USA. That is one of the reasons for its super high price tag. There are probably a few more from various different brands, but it is quite rare these days. Post them in the comments section if you are aware of any.

So, with Neocore apparently manufacturing their products in the UK, that's better than most other brands are doing if you want something potentially more "British" than the rest.

Cindy James Unsolved Mysteries Episode

Cindy James Unsolved Mysteries Episode Number: That number is Season 3, Episode 18, and you can watch the full episode below. In my opinion, the death of Cindy James is still unsolved to this day. Although, I believe her cause of death has officially been ruled as an "unknown event". Very strange case. In my opinion this was murder, and the two prime suspects should be Cindy's ex-husband, Roy Makepeace, and Pat McBride. He was apparently a lover of Cindy's and was a Policeman involved in the investigation. Whoever killed Cindy has gotten away with it so far.


Listen to what Neal Hall (A reporter for the Vancouver Sun at the time) says about the surveillance of Cindy's house. He says that they (The Police) had 24 hour surveillance on her house for days on end. And when the surveillance was on her house nothing would happen. Could this be a sign that the officer who was her lover (Pat McBride) knew about the surveillance and that's why nothing happened during that time. 

Certainly seems plausible. He was an indsider after all, and would have all the information on what was happening with the case / surveillance, officers who were taking part in the stake out, the dates etc. Actually, just reading an update, and it turns out Pat McBride moved into Cindy's house while on the case, and would you believe it. Nothing happened while he was staying there.

Also, when the surveillance was taken off, the harassment / stalking started again. I hope the Police at the time, or even now if there are any police / detectives still looking into this case have considered this, because it seems pretty obvious that this would be an area well worth investigating.

Listen to a recorded phone call that Cindy received (and recorded)

Listen to The Phantom Stalker - The Cindy James Mystery (Interesting Podcast)

And maybe that is why Cindy didn't want to speak to anyone about what was going on. Perhaps she felt threatened because Pat McBride was a Police officer, a supposedly trusted upstanding pillar of the community, and she was being looked at as crazy woman who was making up lies. With no solid evidence to prove any crime against Pat McBride, who are people going to believe. 

No evidence can also be a clue. A police officer would know how cover his tracks and leave no evidence. If it was Pat McBride (I'm not saying it definitely was), he did a great job of making Cindy look like she was crazy and making it all up. Either way, what a bizarre case. I guess her death will remain a mystery, for now.

Best 7-Inch Tablet For Watching Movies

What is the best Seven-Inch tablet if all you really want it for is to watch films / movies. I think my answer may surprise you. While the evolution of tablet computers has been a speedy one when it comes to high specification, the same can not really be said for their build quality. Of course, if you want to spend more than a couple of hundred pounds on a Tablet I'm sure you will notice the difference in quality between a £400 model and one that costs £50 - £100.

But, if all you want is a basic tablet that's good enough to 720p and 1080p movies smoothly, I'm sure most people won't be spending silly money for that privilege. So that means most people will fall into the realm of cheaper tablets, a marketplace that is basically a war zone of terrible tablets, fake reviews and non-existent return policies.

Blackberry_Playbook_Tablet_Cheap_Good_RetroShadow

This is why I say don't even bother. Of course, there are some decent tablets like the Amazon Fire range that are cheap. Especially the Fire 7" model. But with Amazon serving advertisements on their Fire range, unless you pay to have them removed, they create a bad user experience, so I wouldn't really recommend them.

No, my recommendation is even cheaper than the Fire 7". The best 7" tablet for watching movies, is the Blackberry Playbook. Before you dismiss the Playbook because it's so old, let me tell you. I've been in the Tablet Computer business for well over a decade, handled / reviewed hundreds of tablets, and I have never seen another tablet, within the £50 - £150 price range, that has anywhere near the build quality of the Blackberry Playbook. They are solid.

Add to that the built-in speakers. The speakers are excellent in the Playbook. Much better than almost anything out there right now within the £50 - £150 price range. Get any Samsung Tablet within the £100 - £200 price range and compare speaker quality by playing the same film on both the Samsung and the Playbook. Trust me, there is no comparison.

With the Blackberry Playbook only having 1GB RAM and a Dual Core Processor, you would think that it wouldn't be able to play movies very smooth and would lag / skip / stop a lot. Quite the opposite. I've experienced more problems with movie playback on much more expensive devices than I ever have on the Playbook.

Also, you would expect the screen to be sub-par on the Playbook due to its age. But the WSVGA resolution is excellent for watching movies. Extremely clear and detailed. So, before you go spending a pretty penny on some over-hyped, overpriced, mass-produced plastic rubbish, give the Playbook some consideration. A nice clean example, sometimes even boxed with all accessories, can be found for sale online (on eBay UK, US) for literally £15 - £25.

Another Playbook bonus is the cameras. They were way ahead of their time when the Playbook was first released in 2011. And even today, most cheap tablet have terrible dual cameras. Very grainy and just bad quality overall. Cheap tablets have nowhere near the same level of camera picture quality that the Playbook cameras are capable of. And it's now almost 11 years old. That speaks volumes on its own really.

The only downfalls are browsing the Internet and the security features. Internet browsers for the Playbook are very outdated, and the operating system also hasn't been updated in years. The security features, while good for some, are a bit over-the-top for the average user. Transferring data onto a Blackberry Playbook can be frustrating for end-users, as it usually requires IP synchronization between the two devices.

Not really a big deal though if your sole intention is using the device watching movies. To make this as hassle-free as possible, just be sure to have both devices on the same IP (Same Internet connection) when transferring data (in this case adding films to the Playbook). Don't forget to disconnect from your VPN (Virtual Private Network) if you use one.
