its kinda fun its like a real bootcamp lol, The performance of the NOVA launcher is quite amazingly smooth. Now i just put all my android apps in a folder and use the nova launcher as my "android partition".

Pretty impressive how advanced the Android player is becoming. Puts many Android devices to shame

Why don't you just go and buy an Android and save yourself the trouble?

We would miss out on the brilliance of bb10. BB10 is the best mobile experience period. Can't be beat.

The only thing missing was the apps. Now we have all the apps we need.

Yes, just swipe from the top. And yes widgets work as long as you have android apps that support widgets.

Blackberry is truly engineering a better Android than Android. This is an amazing development.

We just need more extensive api support.

Apps that ill perform are missing critical api's

Because you get both exclusive features on one device. Hub,android UI, widgets, active frames,BBM channels. Make sense yet ?

This is just a testament to the sheer power of BB10. The utter brilliance of the platform

We will soon have a better Android than Android. This doesn't sit will with many hard core Android fans.

It really is happening. Better Android than Android. This is just a massive development

Apparently not. All you ever hear in here is that Android is messy blah blah blah. But whatever I guess.
