Yet another update to BBM has been released in the beta zone for those who gotta have the latest build. This is the version that is slated to be officially released soon. I am impressed with how much has gone into improving these beta versions which of course includes the awesome BBM Voice feature.
If you haven’t grabbed the newest BBM yet because you don’t want to become a member of the Beta Zone, don’t let that stop you. It has been nicely streamlined by integrating your BlackBerry ID into their login system. No other registration or fussing necessary.
All you have to do is click on the link below, sign up using your BlackBerry ID, go to the downloads section, and download away! After your download is complete you will be sent an email with your unique (ridiculously long) keycode to activate the software.
