BlackBerry boss mulls mid-range Androids

Re: Well that was a waste of time

The Android app compatibility really isn't fully baked, many applications crash or flat out won't load and the interface differences when the apps do work can be a bit jarring.

Shame, BB10 really did do some nice things that the other OSes haven't really attempted to emulate or improve upon. It's a communication device first, and a consumption device second (far second since their are no apps).

It would be nice if their Android devices allowed for sandboxing of apps and faking of all the permissions (miui does this fairly well), and I would really like to see them put out a unified inbox app for android that has all the BB10 shortcuts (swipe left from anywhere brings you to the hub, etc).

I would've thought listening to their communications would be much more valuable than simply destroying the network, but perhaps Carlos Slim wants to up his subscriber base
