Yesterday, Canadian smartphone manufacturer BlackBerry announced two new devices and a new version of BES. In addition, the CEO of BlackBerry also hinted that BlackBerry's popular messenger, BBM,
might also arrive on dekstop platforms. When asked about his thoughts
about the recent purchase of WhatsApp by Facebook, Chen stated that the
BBM messenger is bound to go "beyond handsets and the phone".
BlackBerry already stated that it's going to release a Windows Phone version of BBM sometime this summer. If we take into consideration that the Windows Phone
platform and the Windows OS have a big number of common libraries and
resources, it will be relatively easy for the Canadian company to
develop a desktop version of the messenger.
