There are very few apps that could be ran. I do not honestly see any point of running those apps on PC. Pc has more variety. With VMWare, we have more choices. I would rather focus on Converting APK to BAR files so they could be used on Playbook. Honestly, they work perfect on native platforms. Functionality is limited and as a developer its better to make it specifically for the platform.

Most of people are not rich like you so they can afford playbooks, iPads etc.
