Very interesting news coming from BGR today concerning the possibility of future RIM devices, including the PlayBook, running Android apps courtesy of the Dalvik virtual machine.Would this make you more likely to buy a RIM smartphone or tablet in the future?
Here is the big news: we have been told RIM is very much considering the Dalvik virtual machine, and we ultimately expect the company to chose Dalvik. If that sounds familiar to you, it’s because it’s the same VM that the Android OS uses, and it would allow RIM’s PlayBook and other QNX devices to run just about any application built for the Android platform.
That certainly makes it more interesting for me, though I assume we would have to side load the applications?
