At BlackBerry DevCon, RIM announced their newest OS called BBX. A rather unexpected move as most of the world was still expecting QNX (running on the PlayBook) to be ported straight to RIM’s smartphones.
As RIM states, BBX is the best of both worlds. BBX has been designed from the ground up and will make full use of RIM’s cloud services (which Europeans are very found off since last week). The platform will allow both Native, HTML5 development (WebWorks), Adobe Air/Flash and BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps.
