Why BBM is so different?
BBM is an iconic messenger app in blackberry phones through which chatting with BBM users could be done securely and safely without any limitation. Here BBM has a upper hand as compared to sms as per the new guidelines there is a cap of 200 sms and also you need to buy a sms pack separately whereas usually the BBM comes en bundled in BlackBerry data plans. So you can use BBM with BES or BIS (push mail, browsing photo uploading and all messengers unlimited). BBM could be used for chatting in between BlackBerry users with BlackBerry PIN could chat unlimited and share photos and files of size up to a whopping 6MB SIZE!!!!
Considering immense opportunity in this area of BBM and able replacement of sms hence Telecom operators have tied up to launch BBM only plans. Which means sms days would be gone and would be replaced ably by BBM.
Greatest advantage Of BBM is you usually purchase a local and national sms plans from your Telecom Operator separately and there is no international sms plans in any indian Telecom Companies whereas with BBM you can chat with any user national local international unlimited…….
So Happy BBMing 🙂
