The preeminent instant messaging application on BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM), BlackBerry Messenger, has received what can safely be called its biggest upgrade to date. After a leak earlier this summer, it’s now ready for primetime in the App World, including features like:
- Avatars, populated from Contacts if desired
- Group functions, allowing multiple users to share pictures, tasks, and events in a persistent chat
- 2D barcodes allow you to invite new friends to BBM with a quick glance of the camera
- File transfer up to 6 MB
Hot diggitty. Get downloading!
