Kik Cross Platform Messenger is Back for BlackBerrys

Kik Back

Kik made a name for themselves as a pretty solid cross platform IM client similar to BBM. They got into some serious business with RIM ending up with feuding lawsuits and RIM pulling Kik’s code signing keys. Terry let us know that Kik is now back and sent out an email to their BlackBerry users about a new Kik version for BlackBerry. It seems like this version is a J2ME app which does not require BlackBerry code signing keys but means it will have very little integration with the rest of the BlackBerry OS. On the other hand it lets Kik make a statement like:

Note: RIM has not endorsed or approved this application for installation on any BlackBerry devices.

You can pick up this version at www.kik.com/jme
