Dear Community,
I'm a native German user of a Z30. I very often use to chat, etc. via BBM with friends by usage of short cuts which are included in *asterisks*. E.g. *ca* for the Canada Flag, etc. Is there any listing available on the www? Who can help me?
Regards

I just discovered the flag shortcuts by accident today! I tend to use words inside asterisks to simulate italics when I'm typing in plain text (I'm talking about *you*, CB10!) I was chatting with someone in BBM tonight and typed *me* in a sentence. What came out was... the flag of Montenegro!!! So then of course we had to play with it, and discovered this was a shortcut to all the international flags!
I found a full code list here.
I also wondered if it worked with anything other than countries. Started with *bb* hoping to get the Blackberry dots, but that was Barbados. Does anyone know if other symbols are possible using the asterisks shortcuts?
What a fun hidden feature. :-)
