If the same app doesn't overheat on an android phone, then there has to be way for it not overheat in the Android player. Translation: Blackberry still has some work to do.

So BlackBerry don't need to partner up with Amazon for that, not that Amazon would be interested. Nokia is owned by Microsoft so there won't be any partnership options there either.

It seems many users are reporting that even apps in the Amazon store require some Amazon services to function properly. So I would disagree that they don't need to broker an official deal. Also, non-crackberrians won't know to install the Amazon store on their own. It will need to come installed out of the box.

I like BB10. But devs aren't flocking to the platform. They need to do something. Even Nokia is going Android for some of their phones.

It's not about what apps I want. I use very few apps. But when all you see/hear is how BB market share is dwindling to less than 1%, then I would say it is time for something tangible to happen. And I disagree, BB World does not have the apps that most consumers want. And Snap is NOT a viable option for non-crackberrians. 99% of people will NOT side load snap.
*You* need to get real.
