How I wish everyday it was Nokia that came up with this BBM thing. I had my N900 for like 7 months and with skype, gtalk, msn and yahoo all logged on 24/7 I was seeing the same 3 people online everyday. Once in a while I would come across another random person. Had no choice but to get a Blackberry because that is where all my friends and family were using IM. Now I have to carry a crap device just for chatting. Would be nice if this had happened with Nokia. Or android.

I know there are other factors that have made BBM so popular. In fact in Nigeria where I am from and most of my friends and family live they all had no choice but to get blackberries because mobile operators there only offer internet bundles with blackberry. Shame on them.
