I'd heard that RIM was in the process of building an Android Player for the Playbook. I highly doubt though that it will result in the guidance of developers toward the native SDK. Those developers are Android developers, NOT Android Player for BB developers, so why would they even look at the native SDK? The only reason I can see is if their App suddenly sky rockets in popularity on the BB. I see that being a rare corner case rather than the norm.
- edw 15y agoAndroid player…yes, one of the CEOs, during an interview said something like: You want apps? We're making an Android player thing… That'll give the Playbook "app tonnage," if that's your thing. The "app tonnage" comment was the dumbest thing I had heard in a long time — breathtakingly dumb. It betrayed a profound apathy towards apps beyond the most crude quantitative perspective.
- wmat 15y agoOuch. That is dumb.
