I just have this question.

BBOS7 has this thing where you click any core function, let's say options and it opens instantly.

BB10 has the BlackBerry Hub which is always open, but the options screen is not, it has to open, as if it was an app. So I want to know, will it eventually just always be running or we have to open it as if it was an app?

Also, if we have more than 4 Active Frames open, what happens? Will BBM always be open too or we'll have to load it like other apps?

Thanks!

I dont get what you mean but options screen.. pretty much the menu has an overflow which serves as option.

If more than 4 active frames are open it overflows downwards. The most active is the top left window

What I'm trying to say is when you first launch for example, a 3rd party game, it has to load right?

Well, when I saw the settings/options menu being opened, it had to load for like half a second or so. Meaning it wasn't instant. So my question is, will the settings/options menu be always open meaning running in the background or will it have to be started if closed/inactive/not in active frames. Because in BBOS7, it was basically always running, if you clicked on any core app (calendar, browser, options, clock...) it opens near instant VS any 3rd party app.


Now, for active frames, when you have more than 4 or 8 (whatever the maximum is), what happens? If you open another one, will it close one of them? (Because the PlayBook can open as many as the memory allows it to).
