| Blackberry confirms Android only future While we have been saying that Blackberry was going to give up on the BlackBerry 10 OS, but official confirmation has been thin on the ground. Now Damian Tay, BlackBerry's senior director for product management for the APAC region has confirmed that BlackBerry is in the process of transitioning to a single platform ecosystem, and that will all revolve around Android. BlackBerry ran some Android apps to temporarily solve the lack of apps on BB10. When the outfit made its toilet themed BlackBerry PRIV it went full Android for the first time with the BlackBerry's QWERTY keyboard. The PRIV did rather well and Blackberry fanboys feared that this would be the thin end of the wedge and that the company would realise that no one wanted a proprietary OS any more. http://fudzilla.com/news/mobile/3983...id-only-future |
