MuruXD Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I wonder if there are any plans on releasing on the Blackberry Playbook? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI Staff Alari Naylor Posted May 1, 2012 SI Staff Share Posted May 1, 2012 Not the kind of thing I would be involved in deciding, but I suggest it's deeply, deeply unlikely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeXe Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 It's a shame the Playbook has a proprietary OS which means no apps, because it's a fantastic piece of hardware. My friend is a developer, so he got one for free in the recent "port your app to Blackberry and get a free Playbook" promotion they did. The screen is unbelievably good, the mic is excellent (we used it in a band practice to demo the song we were working on), and so is the camera. Not a good enough library of apps though, and probably never will be, unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooliusxp Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Isn't there a way of playing Android apps on the Playbook? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Marc Vaughan Posted May 2, 2012 SI Staff Share Posted May 2, 2012 The Android apk support on Blackberry is only for non-NDK applications, FMH contains 300,000+ lines of C++ code so definitely requires NDK support I'm afraid (I did look into this a while back).

SnakeXe Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 With a little Google around it looks like it should be possible to install Android on the Playbook. If so, that's probably the way to go if you want to play FM on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
