Hello everyone. I'm new to BlackBerry and I apologize if this has been discussed before...

I just got a 8703e and downloaded Ramble IM, will it charge for a text message if you are using that service?

and, is an SMS the same as a text message?

Thanks in advance for all of your help!

i believe that ramble messenger uses data, not text messeges.

a text messege is the same as SMS.


can you reply with how good ramble messenger is, would like to here your input on it?

Ramble logs me off a lot. Had IM+ and that seemed to do the same. Until I find one that does not log you off or charge you for SMS. ... I'm not paying for it. But ramble is the only free one that gets around SMS charges from what I understood.

Ramble definately uses data, not SMS messages.

i have an 8703e and Ramble works Great for me. Haven't been kicked off or anything, and messages are delivered as fast as if i were on a computer(IM'd myself, and others), no delay. Highly recommend.

I've only used it for a couple days now, but I'd say so far so good. There is one thing that gets me... I cannot see when someone is "away"
