- I wouldn't say that she's the minority, unless you have stats to back up the claim. I was just like her when I had a blackberry. I couldn't be bothered to add people to BBM because of the hoops, not to mention people I know just don't use the berry anymore.

Maybe I'm too old to have a BlackBerry. I should get a mature phone like an iPhone I guess.pantlesspenguin likes this.01-05-12 09:53 AMLike 1 - I wouldn't say that she's the minority, unless you have stats to back up the claim.

I didn't add random people just to chat. I didn't have time for it. Sometimes it'd take me hours to respond to a BBM and I didn't need one person sending 40 BBMs asking where am I and don't even get me started on pings.pantlesspenguin likes this.01-05-12 09:54 AMLike 1 - 01-05-12 09:54 AMLike 2
- I still think of it as a messaging service and a social network. I like the idea of private pins and all the options I have within BBM.01-05-12 09:58 AMLike 0

They'll all switch to iMessage soon anyway. As goes 1. They'll get the free messaging they want on a device that does what they want. Best of both worlds for them.

- What outage? Do you mean the few people in the linked thread? Is that an outage to you? Reaching a bit aren't you? I will say that both systems were reliable for me, I had glitches with BBM (and REAL outages) just as I have glitches with iMessage. Data isn't perfect.

BTW imessage works great for me!01-05-12 12:29 PMLike 0 - If a mediocre product like Imessage which in all truth, is simply MMS for Apple devices works for you that's fine. I'm just saying for me, based on the numerous threads i've seen online.. it's a nightmare to get working in the first place.. then it's a nightmare cos you're never sure your messages are sent, delivered or read etc..
SMS and MMS have been around a million years so if they couldn't get that right.. it just straight up sucks. Text on BB and all other phones im sure show the sent and delivered status. MMS on BB show's sent, delivered and you can also get a read receipt. You just have to enable Allow delivery/read and Request delivery/read in the SMS/MMS options.
Anyway's.. the bottom line is it's mediocre right now and ya'll are just gonna have to accept the truth... cos the truth sets you free.

but as you've already said, these things don't exist so maybe i'll stop using it.
By the way, how do you disable BBM?
