You can't add security on top of an unsecure OS.
RIM could run Android in a VM and the BB infrastructure in another, signed VM, thus partitioning the unsecured from the secured and maintain compatibility.
I believe RIM could do it, but it will require some out-of-the-box thinking and courage on their part. I don't think they have many hands left at this point.
Being an android maker in a sea of android makers is not a place you want to be.

Me too, I tapped out when Windows 2000 was released.
