Leaked Android App Player for BBPlaybook

Call me a crazy, but this is pretty darn cool. It’s called the Android App Player. What is designed and supposed to achieve is essentially Android inside of the PlayBook’s QNX environment. It was discovered by N4BB via the changelog for the Playbooks update. The app is not fully intended for public consumption but since when has that ever stopped us before.

What is particularly interesting is this runs Android 2.3.3. Which should make many current Android tablet owners irritated since so many of you are still stuck on Froyo builds. This is still going to be some awesome software for BB users. Hopefully something like this will get some people switching to the Android too.

If you happen to have a Playbook laying around and want to give it a go, head on over to N4BB and pick it up. Let us know what you think.
