ya these posts sum up my situation pretty well. used to have around 40-50 bbm contacts. slowly but surely they became dead ends due to android or iPhone switches.
made the switch myself a few months back, but still frequently swap out to my 9700. but with my BB friends able to download whatsapp, it's been easy to connect with the big 3 OSes.
another reason i use whatsapp, that the OP didn't mention, is that whatsapp is the only app to cover symbian OS. in the US, no one uses symbian, but my international friends use symbian, so i can now talk with them

If we still don't have it, what were we gonna get back in November, must have been a lot of bugs to work out. Here's hoping this is the week!

Makes no sense to be soooooo far off in an actual release date timing. If it has really taken this long to test, it must be full of bugs.... what else takes 6 months to test. I still have my doubts as to it actually being released. RIM still controls the "outcome", and "further testing" is a logical ploy. We have all seen this game happen before. Hope not, but have heard nothing to "dispute" this from Liveprofile.03-15-11 08:08 PM - Tech savvy testers...........really? Normal,everyday,typical users would not be qualified to tell if this works. Wouldn't they be the ones that will ultimately be using this app. As you guessed, next month will probably be the earliest, unless of course "advanced" really-tech-savvy testers are needed. C'mon now....... just release it already. It is not a "space shuttle" flight!!They were adding more tech savvy testers yesterday. Possibly yet another glitch and definate delay in release. Probably won't see it this month.
