BlackBerry Bridge app	When your smartphone and tablet are connected using BlackBerry Bridge, and both
traffic over Wi-Fi	devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network, BlackBerry Bridge apps can exchange
	information between your devices using Wi-Fi instead of a Bluetooth connection.
	Using a Wi-Fi connection for BlackBerry Bridge traffic can increase the speed that new
	messages appear on your tablet or that large documents stored on your smartphone open.
	(Requires BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.1)
Browsing changes	The Bridge Browser now only appears if your smartphone is associated with a BlackBerry
	Enterprise Server so that you can access your company's intranet using the secure

	For other types of Internet use, you can use the Browser app on your tablet. If your tablet is
	not connected to a network, the Browser app can use your BlackBerry smartphone's
	mobile connection to access the Internet while BlackBerry Bridge is connected.
