RIM CEO Basically Admits That Android Support Is There To Check The "Lots Of Apps" Box

Quote:
co-CEO Jim Balsillie didn't make it sound like his heart was all-in on Android.

He basically said that the Android support is there to check off the "tonnage of apps" box -- so that RIM can say that tens of thousands of Android apps are compatible with their devices, for people who get excited about those things.

Meanwhile, he said that anyone interested in high performance apps, gaming, etc., will want to make custom PlayBook apps via the new QNX software developers kit.
