    hey people, i have a bb bold 9780 and an iphone 4 and i just got my blackberry playbook which i just love more than anything, but my issue is i cant help but notice how lame and limited the apps in the blackberry app world are, i mean i am a number 1 bb fan but to be honest the app world on the iphone is much much more interesting and has very interesting and great apps, i mean i cant download skype on my playbook while i did download it on my iphone for free and ofcourse it supports video chat, so what do u guys think? is there any other way to get better apps than the ones in the blackberry lame app worl? please let me kmow, thank u

    you can look in the crackberry app store / mobihand. you can also search the internet for OTA downloads from various other sources... don't be afraid to type what you are looking for into google, with the word download mixed in...

    Android apps will only work on android devices / OS's... You cannot use another OS's apps on a bb... Think of it like trying to take a ps3 disc, and playing it in an xbox... It will not work

    Yes, it will likely be a possibility at some point. My apologies, I made the assumption that you were looking for apps for your 9780

    nah its ok thanx though i appreciate the tips, the thing is the playbook is reallllllyyyyy great but it needs more software and good apps so it can be truly unique, everyone keeps on askin me y didnt u get ipad 2 instead and when i show them wat the playbook is like they are mind blown till it comes to the apps part, but like u said at some point,,, thanx man
