BlackBerry lists 5 reasons why BBM is better than iMessage

BlackBerry might be struggling to regain its footing in the mobile market right now, but it still has a few strengths that outshine some rivals in key areas. And according to BlackBerry, one of those strengths is the BBM cross-platform messaging app, which apparently tops Apple’s popular iMessage service in a number of ways.

Apple could have done the same too, but they know iMessage is better and people will use it anyhow.

oh boy, why BlackBerry always list stuff that generic iPeople doesn't care/understand about? Two or three points of that list can be merged into one, security, control, antispam, spam is repeated several times... I'm guessing this list is focused on businesses.

yes, most of the stuff they listed was regarding security, but should went on to include

- bbm is packaged with glympse
- track when your messages are read
- packaged with voice and video calling
- cross platform
- create messaging groups and social contacting

wait wait wait!.. stop the train!... I've been told that iMessage doesn't allow you to send files.. is that true brother? you cannot send files such as pdf?.. only images? what is this? 2006?

You email them. You've heard of that right? Blackberry brags about their secure email. How could you forget that?
