Dolphin Browser is a popular web browsing application for Android which has recently been ported over to the BlackBerry PlayBook. We have seen third party web browsers in BlackBerry App World for the PlayBook in the past, but nothing eye catching enough to use as a secondary browser really.  Dolphin may not be an exact alternative browser, but it’s definitely cool to try out as it sports nice features such as tabbed browsing like Google Chrome.  The application description is unfortunately very pro “download this app now” as it should have been modified for BlackBerry App World to begin with.  Dolphin Browser is free to download from BlackBerry App World.

If you haven’t noticed by now, Handster has a lot of Android applications available in BlackBerry App World for the BlackBerry PlayBook.  These are some useless but fun applications I spotted for fans of the famous TV series Dexter.  One of the apps is a soundboard for the show’s music while the other one is for Debra which is Dexter’s sister.  This is completely irrelevant for those who don’t watch Dexter, but for those who enthuse over the show, I hope you find this entertaining!

Last week we let you know about Handster, a third party Android application store submitting applications to BlackBerry App World for the BlackBerry PlayBook.  Well it looks like the applications are starting to arrive as I notice two pages worth of apps so far now- all free to download.  It’s funny to see that the application screenshots are straight from Android and not ones taken from the PlayBook!  Any way, click the link below and let us know if you find anything worth while in the collection.

Back at DevCon a couple months back, we saw Android developers getting their applications moved over to BlackBerry App World thanks to the App Express center at the conference.  According to an email received byWJD Designs, Handster (a third party application market for Android) is going to be sending developers’ applications directly to BlackBerry App World for PlayBook.  They will be doing the conversions and testing the applications as well.  Here’s the full email:
