R.I.P. Blackberry

If they can't manage to even have a proper app launch, they will not be able to turn their company around. I swear, RIM is one of the worse managed corporations in the world. Even Crackberry.com faithfuls are bitching

It's unfortunate because I'm excited about this BBM launch not because it's Blackberry Messenger but because the layout and UI looks so CLEAN and fresh. If I can get a large friend base on it, the application may be promising and more appealing than WhatsApp (even though the latest updates from WhatsApp have come along ways since the release of the original application)

whats the point of delaying this shit anyways (or even putting it on other devices), most ppl that use bbm have bb phones while the ppl that dont have bb phones pretty much can live without bbm

i pretty much lived without bbm since the phone failed on me & im pretty happy without it, delaying is pointless

one last hurrah before inevitable death?

It's great that you don't use/need/want BBM, but there are other people in this world other than you.

So you are basically saying they should just give up, pack up, and close up shop? Why even try right? They only employ about 10000 people. Finding ways to monetize service revenue is what they should be doing and BBM is one of them.

any news on when it will be released?

MEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...

does anyone miss msn messenger? (i kinda do for nostalgia reasons) but there is a reason it died....

time to move on to better things!

anyone else getting a shit load of apps getting installed on their phones and a while bunch of ads after installing this?

Did you install the leaked apk or one of the fake apps currently on Google Play?

fuck ya i think i installed one of the fake apps.. i think it was called bbm10 client or something like that

so gay i was rly looking forward to sending everyone my pin

Question for people still using blackberry, do you guys use whatapp as well? Are most of your friends on BB or is there a good mixture?

During my last year of owning a blackberry, I found myself using whatsapp more than bbm as more of my friends were switching to other phones.

I use both but finding myself to using whatsapp more since more of my friends use it and we group chat there. I tend to use BBM for those who have BB's since I like having the read and delivered receipts.

Correction. They just laid off 4000 staff, will be dropping out of consumer space, and most likely getting bought out for 4.7 billion and going private.

i duno i just have a bad experience with bb, last i used it with bbm whatsapp was not even popular (i use wechat now as more ppl use it in china)

I wish ICQ was remade into an app.. :badpokerface:
