Maxthon Ports Their Browser to the PlayBook (Android)

Posted: 14 May 2012 02:12 AM PDT

Maxthon Maxthon2

First Dolphin brought their popular browser to the PlayBook and now we have Maxthon doing the same. They are also making use of the Android runtime to easily port their app. The app does work though you can clearly tell that it would benefit from being a native app. There are some caveats but if you were looking for some different browser features on your PlayBook check out Maxthon free in App World. You can also find more details at www.maxthon.com and petition them to make a fully native PlayBook and BlackBerry 10 version!

iOS Jailbreak Community Already Copying BlackBerry 10 Keyboard

Octopus Keyboard 

Score one for RIM's engineers in the "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" category for BlackBerry 10. Kevin @CrackBerry spotted a new iOS iPhone tweak for jailbroken devices that tries to mimic the BlackBerry 10 keyboard RIM showed at BlackBerry World. This rip off is called the Octopus keyboard and is scheduled to be released as early as next week in the jailbreak app store Cydia. I have also been asking contacts at RIM if they have a patent on the BlackBerry 10 keyboard and still have not heard officially one way or another. Still its nice to see competitors copying BlackBerry 10 before it is released.

Obviously RIM's implementation is going to have a much better polish and technology than a jailbreak tweak but it speaks to the fact that the iOS keyboard is aging. If you really look at it the BlackBerry 10 and the PlayBook OS are currently the youngest large mobile OS out there with iOS soon the be the big dinosaur in the room.
