RIM is looking to start off BB10 with bang, as the VP of developer Relations said they would love to start BB10 with as many as 10k apps. Does this mean the currrent apps in RIM’s app world will not work with bb10?
Research in Motion may have been in trouble for the past year or so, lacking a true flagship phoneand a decent software platform, but lately we’ve been hearing a lot of good news related to their BB 10 OS. One of them is the fact that the first models with this OS on board will adopt quad core Snapdragon S4 Pro processors and HD display. Now goes out and says that they’ll offer a bit catalog of apps once the OS is out.
RIM’s VP of developer relations and ecosystem development told CNET that the company wants to break down the record of available apps at the debut of an OS, first generation that is. There have been multiple BlackBerry Jam developer events this year, ever since the big event in May, so devs are familiar by now with the inner workings of the platform. RIM doesn’t have to do that much to break down the record, since iOS and Android didn’t have a huge number of apps when they launched.
