Anybody know if the Blackberry IM Feature will work over there?

More specifically, in Cebu?

This brings up another question......is the Blackberry IM working on RIM's own Satellite System or ???

I should add that I am referring to using the Blackberry IM from the Philippines to talk to someone in the USA.....and it would still be free, right?

Thanks,
JOHN

If you're on the right roaming plan it should. BB data services run through
RIM's server in Waterloo, Canada.

Yup.. Both Globe n Smart provide this.. Whats nice about this is that it can be used on prepaid cards..

I just use wifi for BBMing overseas. Just as long as you have a bis account with your local carrier, you can still use wifi for bbm and emails anywhere in the world.
