Re: Is Blackberry Shutting DOWN AGAIN!!!
I am also panicking but only because I think 9900 will be the last true blackberry. I am thinking about buying them in bulk and stocking them so I can keep using them because there is nothing else that works like Blackberry's Mail app..

Re: Is Blackberry Shutting DOWN AGAIN!!!
We have a bunch of people using the new Z10 and so far they are happy with the new phone including the push email service. Like any new device it's takes a bit to work out the bugs. I 'm waiting for the keyboard version only because i like to have one.

You do realize BIS will be shut down eventually and your 9900 will cease to work, right?

I don't think so. At least not until OS10 is up to par with OS7.1.. Sad but true. Newer, upgraded, faster OS is no match to older, complete OS.
Also, I don't mind if BIS is shut down, I use BES for work, and for hotmail/gmail, I can always 3rd party e-mail apps or forward them.

Re: Is Blackberry Shutting DOWN AGAIN!!!
BlackBerry has stated that BES and older BIS will be around for 5 years.
Hyedipin - my guess is the carriers will do everything they can to accelerate the move to BB10 plans and devise.

WOW!!
Really, that's all I can say about this.
OP, this is not true, I can send a broadcast message that says if you broadcast this message you will win a million dollars, does that mean you will? Or if you broadcast this message a cure for cancer will be found... It is not true. Don't believe everything you read...

Re: Is Blackberry Shutting DOWN AGAIN!!!
Sounds like OP needs better BBM friends that are not trying to scam everyone
BlackBerry will never request you to BC everyone in a broadcast to ensure service

Because some other forums like to lock threads if the mods disagree with the content.
