Esa es la pregunta que mucho se han hecho y escuchamos rumores a lo largo de todo el tiempo hasta el mismo día de ayer, y ahora se acabó el misterio.
En torno a lo que es en cantidad de aplicaciones para BlackBerry 10, la ahora BlackBerry LTD (ex Research In Motion) mencionó ayer:
Being able to announce 1000 of the top app partners is a testament to the strength of BlackBerry 10, the ease of developing for this powerful new platform, and the remarkable opportunity that it represents for developers and brands alike.
We have focused on bringing the most relevant apps to BlackBerry 10 – whether they are global leaders in their categories, or whether they are regional must-have apps. We are thrilled and want to thank all the developers that have shown such strong support of a platform before it has commercially launched. We share in their excitement and belief in BlackBerry 10.

En el caso de Skype, mientras se redactaba esto, se confirmó que Microsoft, traerá a Skype para BlackBerry 10 en el futuro, aunque no se mencionó fecha exacta.
Recordaran que Microsoft y BlackBerry LTD, han sido una relación de amor y odio puesto a que compiten en el mercado pero mantienen acuerdos mutuos por mutuos intereses.
En el caso de Skype y BlackBerry no son extraños realmente, pero versiones funcionales solo estuvieron exclusivos para clientes BlackBerry de Verizon Wireless y por ello nunca vimos libremente en BlackBerry World.
Se intentó una ocasión filtrarlo pero la aplicación estaba bien diseñada que se daba cuenta si eres cliente de Verizon o no.
