You might be right, I don't know. I do know that I'm still regularly using a couple Android apps on my 2013 Blackberry Q10 (it emulates Android, a virtual machine). I've got Kindle for Android 7.2.0.27 on it. I've got Android Simplenote 1.5.5 (I use Simplenote all the time). I've got Amazon's Appstore — and a few utilities, like Sip.fm, Wifi Analyzer and SpeedTest (hardly ever used).

So, I guess I should say, for my limited Android needs the Nook Tablet would probably be useful for five or six years.
