Depends on what you mean by "Native Apps" and you want to do things legally on the Playbook.... if you mean APK which is native Android App.... the answer is no.... all Android files to play on the Playbook must be converted to bar files..... If Android is improtant to you you are better off switching to an Android tablet......

If you're looking for Google Drive & Google Docs, give Files & Folders (see sig) a try.

Your answer is: It depends on Google.

I would also like one, and this has nothing at all to do with Android.

I wonder if they will ever come. RIM ditched google maps and search in favor of bing. Google will probably wait until the OS has a larger market share before considering supporting their services.

Just remembering that google pulled the (useless) gmail app for blackberry a few months ago. probably had something to do with it.
