I am just a little annoyed because of the promise that we would get PlayBook support with the big BlackBerry 10 rewrite that was done. The promise was we were just shelving the Java Phone OS code and cleaning up things for PlayBook and BlackBerry 10.
I hope that the official support for BlackBerry 10 isn't thrown out as quickly as PlayBook support was as soon as BlackBerry 11 is released. Like I said in a previous email, we went from supporting every blackberry device in cordova to supporting only 2 devices (Z10 and Q10). Would the community be as accepting if we said Cordova only supported iOS7 on the iPhone5?
