the google talk shouldn't be monitored because it's using the data connection? right? or am i completely wrong about that?

also, i use the BB messenger to talk to friends of mine that are other BB users and because i cannot turn off the process without completely uninstalling it, i've just left it for now...

i'd like to have it available, but in a form that would not always be running and hogging CPU and memory resources...

any ideas anyone?

BB messenger does not limit your message to a certain amount of letters and you can also instantly send pictures to each other, and invite and have more that one person in your conversation. i don't know anyone's email address do i don't IM them but everyone i know owns a blackberry. i love this application.

I love bb messenger too. I have a question. I have Verizon, which requires internet access, and my friend has t-mo and does not have the internet. Can we still communicate via bb messenger?

You both need to have a BB data plan in order to use BBM.

really jsconyers has answered the question, totally agree, you can transfer certain files at a certain size, if i am not mistaking. but other than that... *answered*

I just starting using it - In another forum C B I read BBM for beginners. Also, agree with all above. IM, a conversation instead of email back and forth - yes it's cool.

Yeah, BBM is one of the features I use everyday. My wife has a Storm also and we use it to stay in touch throughout the day. It's the whole reason she has a BB since she doesn't understand anything else about it... even after repeated attempts to explain it to her... lol
