They could just make it easier on themselves and make a Blackberry launcher overlay to Android 4.0

 

According to the Blackberry developer blog

To help with the process of submitting your application for approval and entry into BlackBerry App World, we strongly recommend the following:

  • Before submitting your Android application to BlackBerry App World, please make sure to remove all mention of the word “Android” from your application. Both in the application description and the application itself.
  • Please remove all links to Android Market from within your application.
  • When submitting your Android application to BlackBerry App World, please make sure to select a minimum BlackBerry PlayBook OS of 2.0.
  • Please make sure your application is signed. For more information on code signing, please view the code signing documentation on the BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps webpage (linked here).
