I tried downloading it on my Droid X and it told me I couldn't because it's reached its maximum amount of downloads for the day

Can someone explain to me the difference between a BBM/KIK and a Text Message? You can send video messages and picture messages on most of the newer phones (iPhone 4, Droid X, Evo 4G,etc...)...If the main difference is group chat then essentially BBM is a waste of time since most people rarely need to tell multiple people the same thing
Also, the fact that you can see whether or not somebody read your BBM is stupid..It seems like something for insecure people that send a text and if they have to wait more than 20 seconds for a reply start panicking like "OMG OMG THEY'RE IGNORING ME!!"
As for the "read/sent/delivery" status on BBMs....it is a way to confirm delivery and have a paper trail in business. Think outside of the box man!
Not everyone is "OMG OMG THEY'RE IGNORING ME!!" aka KIDS
This poster has a point. I remember when I had a BB and those R/S/D status use to annoy me because there was always one asking "are you ignorning me"

If you really want to find a replacement for bbm, you wont...so you might as well just get a blackberry. I had 2 for 4 years and went back to the iPhone because that doesn't matter to me anymore.

Wow, I feel just the opposite. While I wouldn't want a Blackberry in any circumstance, I can at least understand it for work with it's enterprise e-mail and best physical keyboard for typing actual e-mails.Originally Posted by Dirtylicious

When I see teenagers with Blackberrys, I just scratch my head why they want the phone. A poor browser. An out-of-date operating system. Poor touchscreen devices. Lack of apps compared to Apple and Android.

I guess 90% of my phone is used for work... if I didn't need that aspect, I probably be rocking a Motorola Razr.
iPhone does look cool, I just hate touchscreens.
