Among the sessions dedicated to the building of applications for the operating system on the new PlayBook, we can count the Developing Adobe AIR apps for the BlackBerry Tablet OS session, with Julian Dolce, QNX, as speaker.
“Join Julian as he takes you through the process for creating Adobe AIR applications for the BlackBerry Tablet OS. This session is designed to give you all the information you need to know to start creating AIR applications for the platform,” the said blog post continues.
Another session dedicated to the new Tablet OS is How to monetize your apps on the BlackBerry PlayBook, where Mike Kirkup, Director of Developer Relations – RIM, will speak.
Attendees would have the opportunity to learn how they can use the BlackBerry App World for the delivery of applications to users, and how they can get money out of it.
“During the sessions you will learn the how to leverage BlackBerry App World as a channel to reach BlackBerry PlayBook users. For once you have acquired customers for your applications, learn how you can make additional revenue with the BlackBerry Payment SDK,” the blog post reads.
The Power of BlackBerry WebWorks is another session dedicated to the development off applications for the new BlackBerry PlayBook. Attendees to this session would listen to Prosanta Bhattacherjee, Application Development Consultant – RIM.
Here's what this session is all about: “BlackBerry WebWorks open the doors of BlackBerry Development to web developers enabling them create standalone applications on BlackBerry devices.
