BlackBerry Messenger to come pre-loaded on rival smartphones.

BlackBerry has already announced that it will be rolling out its BlackBerry messenger app (BBM) to other platforms such as Android and iOS. However, I have no idea when we can expect these smartphones to be available in the market.
As we all know  BBM is a popular instant messaging application that lets BlackBerry users seamlessly exchange texts, audio, videos and pictures with each other.

Rite now, there are plenty of rival applications such as WeChat, Nimbuzz and WhatsApp, mig 33 in the market. All these rival applications are available across platforms. By making BBM available across platforms, BlackBerry is just trying to expand the reach of this application. The company had rolled out an update for BBM in December 2012, in form of BlackBerry Messenger 7. The most notable addition in the BlackBerry Messenger 7 was that it supported voice calls over Wi-Fi just like skype. BlackBerry had launched a brand new operating system, BlackBerry 10 on January 30. The company has already launched two brand new smartphones, Z10 and Q10 running on this platform. The company is also expected to be working on a new flagship smartphone, which is known to be A10 and is likely to be launched in November 2013. Hopefully on my birthday  :P....
