BBM in big South African push

BlackBerry has identified South Africa and Nigeria as key growth markets for BBM, with BlackBerry in South Africa to support a branch outreach it will launch in 2017.

Haha, I can't see this succeeding. WhatsApp owns the marked on this and no one uses BBM anymore. Sorry BlackBerry, you failed.

The reason for BB success in the past was because of cheap BIS Without a similar deal they will fail.

Talk about flogging a dead horse.

You cannot kill a dead horse to be more dead than what it already is!
Trying to awaken it is another story!

Typical we always get the crap the rest of the world no longer wants...

They had their chance.

There was no reason why they couldn't have bought a version of BIS to Android or iOS. Instead they were greedy and used their service to sell their outdated devices.

Stopped using BBM with my last BlackBerry...

All my BBM contacts migrated to WhatsApp and/or Viber
