estimation

Lets say I have an Android app that uses Google Maps and GPS.Uses custom views and timers.

How much time will it require to develop it for Blackberry?

What changes will be required? Can the UI be reused?

I am totally new to Blackberry, though I know Java.

Please help me estimate the time.
