- There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Verizon is considering this ONLY because they see it as a revenue booster. "Some" asked for shared data plans, and now they are coming (pricing unannounced, of course) for ALL! Verizon did the same thing with their elimination of one-year contracts. My grandfathered unlimited data plans (both devices and WiFi Hotspot) is now in jeopardy -- I am not an abuser, but I hate to have to worry about potentially costly overages!
- Unfortunately, this keyboard has been sold out since its initial release.
- This version also adds the ability to "share" your list of apps (or individual apps) using NFC.
- An iMazing way to quickly delete the junk & spam, and handle the "real" e-mail... I have used several message popup tools, and none of them allow a user to manage incoming e-mail as quickly and painlessly as iMazing does!
- And where is the PlayBook Java player? Did we make assumptions there, too?!?
- Less than what you'd pay for a Starbucks for an iMazing little utility!
- Yes, that's one reason... It was never clear to consumers that Android apps would only be available to be installed via App World.
- So much for loading an Android freeware app on an Android player, including one that is ad-based that generates revenue for the developer...
- Also, this change in direction severely penalizes users that have "legitimately" sideloaded FREEWARE apps onto their PlayBook™. I am all for developers making their Android apps available via App World, but very few have done so. Two that I currently use are Words With Friends (ad supported) and Dropbox. So far, RIM has unfortunately been ineffective in persuading developers to support the PlayBook™ or BlackBerry® 10. I am not only talking about the small one-man developer that submitted an app to App World in order to receive a free PlayBook™. RIM needs to quickly bring Skype (what good is a proprietary video chat?), Google, Zynga, and others aboard to have a chance of survival.
- Why would RIM release an OS v7.0 simulator for the 9930 now? "All" of the US carriers have released at least one version of OS v7.1 for the device!
