BBM is about as useful as push-to-talk Text messaging and email are both basically instant, I see now need for another redundant messaging format. ---

> [@Fry](#): > > You’ll get over BBM. It’s nothing special. you shut your dirty whorish mouth. I have several people I talk to that I only have their PIN/BB email. Some people are more apt to give that out since they can control your ability to contact them. That’s not taking into effect the little things I like about it. Delivery/read indicator, ability to add files easily, etc. The fact its encrypted end to end without a way to intercept is a big plus to me as well, so I can talk about cutting up hookers with brendan while scheduling the next shipment from columbia without worrying. Plus, it’s a data service, not a carrier service. Not to mention the groups (shoutout to the BBM nyspeed group!). > [@ultradriver10000](#): > > How much wind do you think it would take? > > My head hurt trying to read that one.

also, droid isn’t the only device we now have the Eris in our sights as well. Also, with Sprint + T-Mobile + Verizon + AT&T(highly likely) all having android powered devices, development will soon sway towards it. ---
