Re: BBM Question

Hello KarriDeckert,

 

It should work through the use of BlackBerry Bridge.

 

Here is a short demo: http://www.blackberryos.com/forums/new-blackberry-playbook/21481-video-demo-blackberry-messenger-pla...

 

Hope this helps,

Euclidics

Re: BBM Question

Hey,

 

You posted as I was so I didn't see your initial reply. I am currently at work so couldn't verify the validity of the video I posted however it seemed from the article it was showing it working.

 

Sorry for the misinformation then,

Euclidics (:

Re: BBM Question

got the bridge to work but the BBM doesn't show up as an icon   I presume there will be an update on the operating system soon to fix this?
