That is the golden egg and something Apple can't do. The only reason the iTunes app store works is that Apple has built the device, the market and the ecosystem so millions of people have an account. RIM has nothing even close to this, so a RIM run store would be at a serious disadvantage. I think this is the only logical solution for RIM at this point.
