PC Mag: As a former BlackBerry owner, one of the features I've always missed was BlackBerry Messenger (BBM)—an IM client for chatting with other BlackBerry smartphones. The killer feature in BBM was that it indicates if your messages were delivered and read by the person you were chatting with. It's still a selling point and the focus of some of their recent TV commercials.

They’re currently ramping up for a release party on June the 7th in New York for the successor for last years KeyOne.
