Default I was looking at the Nexus One, and noticed something like a BBM Barcode...

Those barcodes are a standard thing....not just a BBM thing. It might be just to track that particular "beta" phone or whatever

It's a QR code, and can be decoded by mobile phone cameras

QR Code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yeah I know it wasn't necessarily BBM related, I know the difference in the way both the BB and Android OS works. I just thought you guys might get a little kick out of it

I didn't know it was called a QR barcode, thanks for the link.

Some people on this forum use a QR code for their profile pic. It's a good way to embed a URL or an encoded message.
