Other than using it to connect with other blackberry users, is there anything special about it? I have never used it and it was just a question. Thanks in advance!
Just an IM client for blackberry to blackberry. The fastest way to communicate with someone else on a blackberry, next to a phone call. Your only charged data rates, so if one of you is over seas, much cheaper than a phone call.

well, BBM5.0 keeps your PIN contacts. it allows avatars. allows you to transfer files. allows you to add other BBers by a PIN barcode (if they're on BBM5.0 as well). i like it.
Thanks for the post about the BBM 5.0. I was curious about that.
The one big thing I like about BBM is that when my wife ask if I am almost home, I simply go to "send location." That would really be useful if she ever has a flat tire and I need to know exactly where she is.
I like it, got everyone I know on BBs and so now I have almost no txts, just bbms, I think it is nice knowing that message was delivered and received. It is a quick way to ask a question.
Other than the fact that BBM might be one of the only messaging clients that allows all the people who own a particular brand of phones to contact one another internationally without any additional charge over your data plan, nope, nothing special at all. :]

I thought "what's he talking about" and then I looked and found that "send location" option that I had somehow never seen before. Very cool - great tip!
I also like about BB Messenger:
- instantaneous. I find text messaging to not be as instantaneous or reliable.
- fully integrated with BB, so it's easy to send a picture to someone via BB messenger.
- "send location" option! :-)
