the good thing about whatsapp is it scans your contacts and links people with the app installed. this is like icq all over again

And if anyone has your number, they can see your status and if your online on whatsapp.

Stalker mode : good for ex gf/bfs or to check if someone has been dodging you or not.

BBM doesn't have this problem.

You can't add BBM contacts by phone number or from your contact list.

BBM really missed the boat on scanning your contacts with bbm like what most modern messengers do, viber, whatsapp, etc.

I had to wait 5 hours but I didn't receive the email. I just clicked on I got the email every hour and it finally worked. I already have a BlackBerry ID so I just logged into that and all my bbm contacts was already there.

That's the purpose of Blackberry. You decide who to give your pin out too and who should know that you have BBM.

I disagree. I like it way more than Whatsapp, with the exception that I barely have any friends on it....yet.

I think this is going to be the biggest thing ever. when i have people from work, they "automatically" have me on whatsapp and that's really something i DO NOT want. I don't want people to stalking my picture, print screen my picture of my profile and then sending it to friends etc.

I'm not sure but the Delivered / Read is really important to me.

Can someone confirm if double check mark the same as Read ? I know if you open up Whatsapp, it automatically gives you 2 check marks but that doesn't mean someone has read the message

In whatsapp 1 check mark means it has been delivered to whatsapps servers, two check marks means it has been delivered to the persons device.

It has nothing to do with reading the message.

I really think those who say whatsapp is better and they won't switch over are wrong, and they will eventually switch over.

Everyone I have ever asked that had a blackberry 3 or 4 years ago, swears up and down that they are going to DL it immediately and go back to using it.

Finally got it working. It's not bad but I think the UI could use a bit of refinement. I thought the keyboard was supposed to be different than the stock Android one?
