BlackBerry PlayBook Will Support Android Applications



The BlackBerry PlayBook launching with support for Android applications was considered nothing more than a rumor by some but today RIM has announced in a lengthy press release their upcoming 7-inch tablet will support Android applications in addition to their own BlackBerry Java applications. The Android applications will be accessible through what RIM is calling an app player.
Coming off the heels of announcing prices and release dates for the US and Canada RIM is on a roll this week with updating the public on their PlayBook tablet. With this new update on Android application support the first BlackBerry tablet is starting to look even more attractive let alone the competitive pricing, the PlayBook will start at $499 for a 16GB Wi-Fi only model when launched next month here in the US.
