WOW, that's a lot of contacts, I don't really know the answer to your question as I don't even come close to maximum contact capacity......not sure if I even want to know that many people or want that many contacts on my phone......WOW
I have over 8000 contacts and its still working pretty well..
Anyone with 8000 contacts on bbm needs a break from the blackberry world. Seems to me like your one of those people that add everyone posible. Like the people that post their pins all over the Facebook blackberry fan page
When recently a synchronisation app' went crazy on my 'phone and duplicated a number of my 180 address book contacts,I ended up with 9800+ listed.They didn't use that much memory,so as the reviews always say-"contact storage virtually limitless",I would assume.
Limits exist in BlackBerry� Messenger for the number of allowable Contacts, Messenger Groups, and Members in a Group. These limits are as follows:
Maximum # of BlackBerry Messenger Contacts = 2000
Maximum # of BlackBerry Messenger Groups = 30
Maximum # of Members in a BlackBerry Messenger Group = 30 *
