Will Playbook bridge with my Android
Will Android apps coming to Playbook and Blackberry phones just no good, will Rim let us bridge with my Android phone?

Tether yes, bridge isn't likely though. Tethering should be enough for what you need though, it will get you internet access on your PB. If you can use wifi sharing that's a little more ideal as all the PB apps will work properly then. (App world being one that doesn't work over Bluetooth tethering)

the whole point of the BLACKBERRY Bridge is for Blackberry phones to have exclusivity with email and PIM from your phone to the playbook. It will not work

It depends on too many outside variables for it to function like other tablets do on their own. But when all the features are native i.e. Apps and PIM functions it should work pretty well as a tablet.
