Report: Blackberry Messenger due for Android, iOS

Research in Motion is planning on porting its Blackberry Messenger Service to both the Android OS and eventually the Apple iOS platform as well, a report claimed Thursday.
Citing multiple sources within RIM, Boy Genius Report claimed that the software which may end up launching on the other platforms will be a de-featured version that could lack the ability to share multimedia files, BGR said.
"According to our sources, RIM has not yet finalized details surrounding timing or pricing, but we have heard that the company might make the software free to all users," BGR claimed. "We're also told strategy is still being developed, however, and RIM may end up charging users a one-time fee or even a recurring fee for access to its BBM service on third-party platforms." http://www.thinkdigit.com/Mobiles-PDAs/Report-Blackberry-Messenger-due-for-Android-iOS_6386.html
