    I don't know many people with blackberries so I hardly use BBM. I was playing around with it today though and noticed there is an option to SMS through BBM (I'm sure old news to all of you). I added a few contacts to BBM through that set up and, yes, they appear on my BBM contact list. Unfortunately my wife is away until Monday night and has my Playbook so I can't see if I can now use BBM to text these people through bridge. Has anyone else tested this? Does it work? If not, anyone willing to give it a try?

    I don't believe the SMS contacts will even show while bridged unfortunately, but that would have been a cool way to go about it for sure!

    it is a great way of organizing your textn, as you can group contacts. but no just oike BBM group chat you will not see them on your bbm for pb.

    Yep. No non-bb sms messages through PB BBM. Would very much like to see this updated.

    it is because everything that works on the pb is done through the data connection

    sms still is transmitted over the same part that you make and recieve phone calls i dont know what its called but it is seperated like that and that is the reason you cant do regular texts on the pb

    I am more appalled that someone would allow his wife to take his playbook for the weekend.... I would probably allow someone to take my wife for the weekend before my playbook....
