    Feel free to post here with your experiences on BBM Voice!

    I just made a call and the call quality is quite good. If both parties talk at once it does appear to drop one of the voices though.
    To answer or hang up, it seems like you have to use your physical buttons; it would be nice just to tap the person's avatar to answer a call.
    I turned off my cell network and just used wifi, and as expected it worked flawlessly! I got my brother to turn off his cell radio too ( so we were both just on wifi), and we talked over long distance with no problems! This is definitely a great feature

    I do remember watching a QNX-car video about the whole "talking at same time" conundrum, and I'm not sure if it was QNX tech, or speaker tech, or network tech, but all I remember is both parties talking at same time, as if were face-to-face.

    Anybody care to back me up or am I insane?

    So far, only one of my BBM contacts has it. Voice quality is excellent. We held a normal conversation, even interrupting each other at one point. That didn't appear to be an issue. When he rang me (on BBM Voice), I tapped my screen to answer. The screen almost looked like a regular incoming call screen except it said BBM call (or something to that effect).

    It may have just been a wifi connection issue. I tried talking over/interrupting my wife (for scientific purposes only!) on a BBM Voice call, and it worked much better this time. I am curious to hear the experience of others.

    Do both parties need to have BBM 7 installed? I still don't see it in the beta zone... Maybe because of the fact that I am in India... ((
