I am running the dev version of Playbook OS. Have loaded a few Android Apps. Many don't work at all, some work except for minor issues (ie Android Apps can't access the camera), and some work flawlessly. As release approaches, I assume we will see a combonation of these bugs being fixed, some apps not being compatible when all is said and done and the rest working fine.

Technically it opens in the "Android App Player" and then runs in emulation, but it is nearly seamless from the user perspective. You can also sideload the Android App Player on 1.08 (current release) and load the apps that way, some googling will show you the way, but DDBP is the tool you should search for.
