Not off the top of my head, but I did read that at several locations, & even in the liveblog at Engadget when Qns were asked as I recall.
They referred to the 42k+-odd as "Native Apps", of course quality can/will vary immensely...

I have about the same feelings and want to return to the N9, even if the N9 has its quirks too. I just feel better with it.

So, I was watching some BB10 related Youtube videos. This one shows BB10 running an Android port of Songza. http://youtu.be/xOWqUrOwn98

I liked the implementation of the "swipe from bottom right then diagonally up and left" to function like the back button. I thought it looked pretty smooth. If this is a sign of things to come, I'd say it doesn't look too bad.

Re: BlackBerry 10 Launch
 

That gesture is only used in Android apps, so to me it creates confusion....

But I am liking BB10 more and more each day. I now love the Hub a lot because of how quickly and clearly I can read messages from different services.

Again I think it will be like N9, some UI quirks here and there but when you get used to it, it just works and many users will start swiping on their friends' Android/WP/iOS devices. Besides, this is the PR1.0 of BB10. There are a lot more to come.

THIS. I agree that this is only version 1.0 of BB10, and there is always a nice jump to the 2nd version of a new OS in terms of new features and bug fixes, so the future is bright.

I saw more BB10 swipe-y goodness today, indicating that further Easter egg gesture controls may continue to surface. From resetting the hub with five down-and-left diagonal swipes from the upper right corner of the screen, to multiple level hub viewing by swiping right from the bottom left edge of the lower menu bar while reading a particular email, BB10 makes me want to have a go when it gets to the States.

My sim card is happily back in the N9, at least until I get my hands on a non Dev device. The dev one is not a very cool experience as a daily phone.

And the hub annoyes me because it doesn't mark messages as read upon reading them but rather when you press back, after reading rhem. Thus if I lock the phone while reading a message it still shows the notification.
