I start the day by checking my GMail app, then my Facebook app, Google+ app, Latitude app to see what my friends are up to. Then I check my Pulse app for updates on all the websites and blogs I follow and then check up on my Twitter app. All of this in a mere matter of minutes.
Then I open up my Skype app and call either my family or some friends in Denmark. I do this every day since I live in the U.S. now, such an easy and cheap way to keep in touch. Sometimes I do this through a Skype videocall.
Then I hit up the YouTube app for the latest daily reviews and updates on the channels I follow. After that I browse the web before I shower and have to go to work.
At work I again use the YouTube app to find entertaining funny videos I and my coworkers can laugh some at. Especially funny watching people do stupid things which usually ends up getting themselves hurt.
Sometimes I play a few games during my breaks. Latest hits for me is Scramble with Friends, Words with Friends and that new ZombieSmash. Some on my Android phone, some on my tablet.
Most of this accomplished entirely off my Motorola Xoom. Most of this could not be accomplished on the Playbook or a BB phone. And almost all of it through apps, not the web browser.
Other days I use other apps. My point is I need a whole lot of apps to effectively get me through the day, most of which are simply just not available for Blackberries. Just because you had a revelation you don't need apps, doesn't mean other people don't either.
