Now that BBM is coming to android and iOS phones and BIS is no more. Is there anything holding you back to a BBM phone or will you guys move to an android feature packed phone given half a chance? |

CEO states that they are so confident in BB10 that they dont mind handing BBM to other platforms for free. I wouldnt do it for free but hey thats just me.

Let's face it....without bis, blackberry will sink faster than a brick......bb10 a huge success?......I don't agree with that, won't even consider getting one unless they change their bis structure on it.......

BIS is only there for old devices but not for BB10. the present and future of blackberry. The reason BIS is even offered its for the sake of old legacy devices. Today they released a new phone Q5. opened up bbm to other platforms and Z10 even has skype now. BB10 is still fighting in its own right and Z10 users plus Q10 users will attest that its leaps and bounds ahead of legacy BB

For corporates, BES will still be a major reason to go for BB, but for the casual users who do social networking and messaging? Buying a BB is pointless now, I feel bad for those who got the BB10 phones. My GS4 will have BBM!! Although most of my friends have moved to Galaxys and iPhones anyway, this would've been bigger news last year.

People said that BIS is the only thing supporting blackberry and they dropped that with BB10. Those same people then said BBM is the only reason that most use blackberry. They have thrown out that baby with the bathwater. That's how confident blackberry is, pinning ALL their hopes on BB10. The only thing i'm loving since today is BBM channels. A twitteresque, facebook page kinda mush that has great potential. To market your business and have people subscribe follow your channel. Available on

... the new BBM v8. One can also argue that from BB point of view, I don't have to get an android phone or resort to whatsapp to communicate to my android friends, just get them to install BBM. Some are saying this new BBM move will kill whatsapp but its still early days. May I add that the new BBM for legacy devices looks super hot. It may seem like a dumb move for now but perhaps Blackberry know what they are doing.
