Dynamic License Flow In the Blackberry App World Vendor Portal there is a new tab under an application called "Licensing". From there the developer is able to choose the license type from either"Free", "Paid" or "Try & Buy". If the developer does not select free, they will see some additional fields appear. The first field is the "License Key Model", choices are Static, Single, Pool or Dynamic.Static means that there is no license key needed to run the app, for trials there is a checkbox on the release to indicate it is a trial version. Single means there is a single key the developerenters into the portal to unlock the application. Pool means that the developer sends RIM a pool of serial numbers that are handed out one at a time to each customer.
