Would be great.

Playbook will benefit from RIM's strengths in Enterprise and security, but how to appeal to consumers?

A playbook that has QNX, RIM's traditional software, and Android app compatibility will be great.

Also, Android is pretty good, but most of the Android device manufacturers are pretty good, e.g. Samsung has sold tons of Android devices, but their pieces of the software and their support are beyond terrible.

So RIM could likely create better tablets then the folks currently making Android tablets and steal a lot of sales from them.

Consumers want an alternative to Apple, but they also want lots of apps.
