BGR: BlackBerry Messenger will launch on Android and iOS
BGR has learned from multiple trusted sources that Research In Motion is planning to bring its beloved BlackBerry Messenger app and service to Android, and eventually to iOS as well. According to our sources, RIM has not yet finalized details surrounding timing or pricing, but we have heard that the company might make the software free to all users.
I hope it’s true. I’m not a huge fan of BBM (it’s a bit too noisy and distracting for me), but I’ve been missing it since I ditched my BlackBerry because all of my family and real-life friends are on it.
