RIM Ready To Push Out BlackBerry Messenger Upgrade

BlackBerry Messenger Update

Word on the street is that Research in Motion has updated the BlackBerry Messenger Servers to the latest version and inadvertently pushed out an OTA download link to some BlackBerry Messenger users.  A lot of us have already downloaded a leaked version of the upgrade which we have been calling BlackBerry Messenger 5.  We hear, however, that  BBM5 won’t be the official name.

Whatever RIM decides to call the next version of BlackBerry Messenger, it shouldn’t be too long before it is officially released to the public.

Is BlackBerry Messenger Down?

by Robb Dunewood on February 12, 2009 · 9 comments

I have gotten a bunch of Tweets from BlackBerry users accross all carriers saying that BlackBerry Messenger is down and that they cannot send PIN to PIN messages.

Is RIM having yet another outage?

I am not quite sure why, but, it seems like I have been using BlackBerry Messenger an awful lot lately.  Like most other IM appliactions BlackBerry Messenger is an incredibly efficient way of communicating short messages to other BlackBerry users.

I am sure that I’ve reviewed it several times before here in so I will spare you another “this is BlackBerry Messenger and what here is what it does” post as RIM really hasn’t made any major changes to the application in some time.  I’ll just tell you to download here it if you somehow managed to delete it off of your device.

Just in case, however, there are any BlackBerry Messenger developers that work at RIM and by chance happen to be reading this post, what I will say is this…  Will you for the love of all things good and cuddly add some type of desktop support so that I can access BlackBerry Messenger through BlackBerry Desktop Manager or something?
