Also, it adds support with the Android video player and .adk support for all android apps. What i'm getting to is that the idea of Blackberry bringing Android apps to my Playbook is like adding lightning stickers to my crappy car: IT'S STUPID! By the way, the list of Android apps on my Playbook is so small, it took me 2 minutes to see them all and they were useless apps.[/citation]
Ummmm .. OK
I missed the part of the article where it was mentioning RIM's playbook. I thought it said Apple's iOS & Android.
Also isn't the playbook more of a business product, with business apps and security features (even if the product is a year or two behind where it should be), and thus you would expect to pay more for productivity apps than fart sound apps?
Now I respect your point on the lack of playbook apps and apps which are on multiple systems costing more for playbook than the do on other systems and how that's a bit underhanded (but understandable given the much smaller market). But that's a bit like saying there isn't many commercial Amgia 4.0 programs and the ones that exist are more expensive than the Windows or OSX version.
Seriously people...if it makes you money, spend the $5 on the app. If you don't make enough money to cover the $5, you really didn't need it.
If your just wasting time playing a game ... did you enjoy it half as much as a movie or did you at least get $5 worth of joy our of it? If so, then you got your money's worth .. if not then you can b*tch and moan. But come on ... how cheap, not the right word but all I can think of, are you when $3 to $5 is outrageous for a program but you can drop $300+ on a phone.
