eLogikal -

Are you having any issues with contacts becoming 'Unreachable' if you don't converse with them for a few minutes and them not receiving messages you send to them when their status says that? I'm trying to determine if I'm having issues due to uploading OTA as opposed as through DM or what. Thanks in advance!

thanx

[eLogikal]

I haven't noticed any problems and I used OTA as well. I only have one contact that's unreachable but he always is. I have had nothing but a good experience with the new BBM so far. Hope this helps.

Cool, what kind of new features/improvements can I expect when it finally gets released?

[snoxr500]

well im running,the new bbm for my 8900, you have a "profile" with picture n all, the caption can be bubbles, stripes, or norm. send/receive times are a little more detailed, some more smillies, more visual appealing and maybe more user friendly?

[R-W]

Sweet, Can't wait for the final version! W/this and the new DM that will be available for mac's, I'm pretty excited about what Rim is doing in the future.

[eLogikal]

New BBM is the ish. Case & point. :P

[shinta86]

I didn't like 5.0. It seems to just lag when sending messages.

[wolfgaze]

Is there any word on when BBM 5.0 will be released?

Can anyone help me. I've been trying to download the new bbm 5.0 but it always canelon me. I've tried OTA download, it download upto 60% then cancel. I've tried saving the file on a microSD card to download in the phone. The downloading won't even start. Now I'm trying to download it via BB desktop manager but the application loader don't recognise jad files and to convert it to alx file is complicated. If anyone have a bbm 5.0 alx file that's recognise to the application loader can you please post it here 4 me. If you know of a method that could possible allow me to download bbm 5.0 to my 8900 curve I would appreciated it.
