This one comes pre-installed but is worth mentioning due to the fact that it's a great app for showing off the hardware capabilities of the PlayBook and because of the accelerometer controls.

Facebook

There is, of course, a Facebook app for the PlayBook. While it won't feature all of the apps that you'd find on the web version, the cleaner interface allows you to quickly update your status, chat with friends or keep up with your contacts.
