I don't think that app exists, yet. Also, I believe most BBM 5 links are dead due to RIM cracking down on its leak. I know there is a link or two out there, as I have one, but I'm not sure the rules of the forum would permit a link provided, because of the RIM crackdown.

Dialing *67 before a call should block your number, but only on an "on call" basis. If your number is blocked automatically, you can dial *82 to unblock it on an "on call" basis. Don't know of any apps that will do this for you, but your carrier should be able to do it. Hope this helps a little!

Sorry for the double post. If you need the link, send me a BBM request.

Disregard that last post of mine - I re-read your original post and realized that you're probably talking about people looking at your phone and seeing who's calling you... I misunderstood you there.

So I guess I didn't help at all!

Keep the phone in your pocket!

There are a couple of threads out there that document some of the problems people are having with BBM 5.0. Personally, I'm finding that only about 40% of my BBMs reach their their intended recipient and I don't get the "R", "A", or "D" status indicators at all. I'm currently trying to find a friend who will let me use their PC (I'm on a Mac) so I can downgrade back to BBM 4.7. That being said, others are having great success with BBM 5.0. Your results may vary, but it's definitely something to keep in mind.
