    I don't think my small sample size is enough to support a claim of that magnitude.

    Android is having issues. IOS is smooth.
    Again goes to show that hardware + software model has advantages, like Steve Jobs said.

    That's not the problem, the problem is that BBM for Android doesn't officially exist yet. It's only leaked APK's that are running at the moment, while we wait for the official version to finally show up on Google Play. It was supposed to show up at 7 AM EST, but it's currently 4:20 PM EST.

    This is exactly what I expected at least for emerging markets. People are ditching their low cost and secondary device BBRYs, but they take their BBM with them. That's all what counts at this stage, BBM can live on.

    It was, but something has delayed it so much that the iPhone ended up getting it first.

    So how does BlackBerry monetize cross platform BBM?
    Are people switching from another application?

    I don't see them monetizing BBM anytime soon if ever. This is free advertising (not counting the development cost of cross platform BBM). Whether it translates into people giving a look to BlackBerry hardware is anyone 's guess.

    I think people will start to shift.... I despise whatsapp but I use it because it's only real solid option, but its still shoddy.

    Apparently the monetization will come when upgrading the a version of BBM that has more of the features we get on our BB10's, like voice n video.
    But don't quote me on that
