A status update from SHAPE services regarding IM+ for the BlackBerry PlayBook

By Bla1ze on 18 Jul 2011 04:09 pm

The other day when we wrote about IM+ Plus for PlayBook having issues getting approved into BlackBerry App World we did so in an effort to help improve the overall situation for not only SHAPE services but also for BlackBerry developers out there who may be facing similar challenges. As expected, we didn't recieve any updates from RIM but SHAPE services did. As they wrote on their blog:

Shape's Development Head Alex and myself just had a talk with Tyler Lessard, RIM's VP, Global Alliances and Developer Relations.

Tyler was really friendly and helpful and we have now a hope that IM+ for Playbook will be approved within two weeks or so. We understand that to approve such an complex app can take the same time or more as the development of IM+ for Playbook itself. Just as remember, the app is now for two months in the testing queue.

And the best of the talk: after years of our requests to RIM we got from Tyler a promise to consider BlackBerry Push usage for IM+. It would make user experience on the BlackBerry platform the same kind of beautiful like on iOS.

Please continue to follow-up the story, it will really help to make things done. And to celebrate the moment we will offer to our friends from CrackBerry.com 25 free licenses of IM+ Pro for BlackBerry right now and 25 free licenses of IM+ for Playbook after release.

Needless to say, we're glad to hear things are now on the right track for IM+ for the BlackBerry PlayBook and considering SHAPE services has given us 25 copies of IM+ Pro for BlackBerry to give away -- we'll do just that. Drop a comment on this post and we'll pick 25 of you all out there to win one free copy each courtesy of SHAPE services.

Please note: Contest is for the BlackBerry version, PlayBook version contest will be held later

This would be a wonderful addition for the Playbook. I have been patiently waiting for all of the great Apps that RIM has been promising us. I pre-ordered my Playbook and bought it with faith :)

alegs Jul 18, 2011 at 4:15 pm

Great news!

Would be an awesome App to compliment my PlayBook.

ryanlrobinson Jul 18, 2011 at 4:15 pm

Great! I want in on this!

great. this is a great story for all developers of the BlackBerry platform. Now if you don't mind I'd like to test out the IM+ for my BlackBerry smartphone. Thank you kindly.

chefmorry Jul 18, 2011 at 4:17 pm

Sign me up! Glad RIM got in touch with shape. Hopefully they can keep their two week goal, as they've missed every other goal/promise concerning the playbook.

RecioC Jul 18, 2011 at 4:17 pm

Awesome, I'd love to be entered to win, I enjoy using my PlayBook and this would be great.

00stryder Jul 18, 2011 at 4:17 pm

Glad to hear that things are working out for them. Just fooled around with a Playbook at Best Buy yesterday and I can't wait to save up enough money to get one!

Good to see that someone at RIM is finally addressing this issue!

I'd love to win IM+ for my Torch. I'm thinking of changing messaging platforms across all of my devices from Trillian.

Stides Jul 18, 2011 at 4:34 pm

Good news for SHAPE, IM+, and for PlayBook! Please consider me for one of the giveaways!

Thanks!

djtaube Jul 18, 2011 at 4:38 pm

Good to hear, but I really hope that application approval doesn't rely on the need to advertise the delays.

nickolas16 Jul 18, 2011 at 4:39 pm

Would love to have 1 license!!!!!!

IndyScan Jul 18, 2011 at 4:40 pm

BlackScorpion3 Jul 18, 2011 at 4:45 pm

As much as i am on my device a copy of IM+ would benefit me greatly...

i desperately need im plus for my playbook

citystars41 Jul 18, 2011 at 4:47 pm

shebmiller Jul 18, 2011 at 4:48 pm

Whoa! Awesome! I hope this app is available for the Playbook when I get mine in a few month!

redk Jul 18, 2011 at 4:48 pm

Looking forward to seeing it release in appworld soon!!

Philtr Jul 18, 2011 at 4:49 pm

tenniscpa Jul 18, 2011 at 4:50 pm

Great Job!! I'd love to have the app!!. Give them another push on the Playbook update.

sjsplaty Jul 18, 2011 at 4:50 pm

Sure would be great to win a copy of this. i already use IM+ Voice and the full IM+ Pro would be fantastic!

DavideaNY Jul 18, 2011 at 4:50 pm

I need one for the bb and one for the pb

CheerfulChe Jul 18, 2011 at 4:51 pm

count me in!

Zizzzzy Jul 18, 2011 at 4:51 pm

Here's to winning one copy now, and another later for the playbook! :)

Either or, winning one would probably guarantee me buying for the other respective device when avail if I dig the app!

Glad all is working out in this situation and hopefully it puts a bit more spotlight on RIM needing to work harder for its developers who really hold a huge part of how successful the playbook will be! Give em love RIM, start spending some of your reserves with some great incentives. Free Playbooks is great for independent devs, but not much of a pusher for the Devs you really need on board!

WonderOtter Jul 18, 2011 at 4:53 pm

This is fantastic news!

ElSteve9 Jul 18, 2011 at 4:53 pm

I'm a big fan of IM+ ! Cool!

-Stephen

nHUBi1Kenobi Jul 18, 2011 at 4:54 pm

If I don't win a copy... I will buy it ;)
FANTASTIC JOB guys!

bindxb Jul 18, 2011 at 4:55 pm

aha

Eli_B Jul 18, 2011 at 4:55 pm

I used to use IM+ with my iPod touch, and I really enjoyed using it. I would love to win a copy for both my BB and Tablet...

doug1010 Jul 18, 2011 at 4:55 pm

Woo! Want it for my PB.

donboltone Jul 18, 2011 at 4:58 pm

Neeeeeed!!!

Leopardmech Jul 18, 2011 at 4:59 pm

Sounds like a great app to have on my PlayBook.

BBFTW88 Jul 18, 2011 at 4:59 pm

Need this app on my PB

mfreedmn97 Jul 18, 2011 at 5:01 pm

The pen (in this case electronic media/social networking) is indeed mightier than the sword. If anyone thought for a second that Kevin's efforts are 'wasted' and that RIM isnt paying attention to Crackberry and others boards like it this ought to put that notion to rest. The listening part is another story but at least the story backed up with facts and proof did the trick and the developer got a response. You would think that RIM would be responsive and responsible dealing with the people who in the end will make or break the Playbook. No apps = no sales. Good for Shape. Good luck .

Rossco_P Jul 18, 2011 at 5:03 pm

Sign me up !!
It's apps like this that continue to make the Playbook a game changer.
Using mine every day and loving it !!

falconeight Jul 18, 2011 at 5:04 pm

My iPad already has it, but give it to me anyway

knightdriver Jul 18, 2011 at 5:04 pm

This is a definite must have app. Can't wait to see it for the playbook. Anything that gets me on the playbook more is a plus.

fghard Jul 18, 2011 at 5:07 pm

Hope RIM didn't do this for the bad PR it could generate, and really give us push.

This would make me love even more my PB, I hate justifying it to all my friends, and having this app, I would only be needing Skype to GTFO of all those voices from Ipad holders.

Thanks CB for the updates.

kevin.mcca Jul 18, 2011 at 5:07 pm

YES!!:D I've been waiting for this long time!

jdgarrido Jul 18, 2011 at 5:08 pm

Great can't wait to try it :)

Gregory Ryan Jul 18, 2011 at 5:09 pm

This is fantastic news. I was worried, but it looks like RIM is trying to make it right.

mavsguy842 Jul 18, 2011 at 5:10 pm

IM+ would be good, and give me a chance to actually use the PB for communication outside of facebook. I hope this lights a fire at RIM because they've definitely underdelivered on the Playbook so far.

eyhab27 Jul 18, 2011 at 5:11 pm

woohoo for IM+! Would love another app on my PB!

Concession Jul 18, 2011 at 5:13 pm

Great to see an IM app is finally about to come to the Playbook.

Looking forward to getting it, here or via app world :)

Course, I don't need the phone version...

todd3358 Jul 18, 2011 at 5:35 pm

... for something completely different (a favourite lie): Magnets can be re-polarised by stroking them with cheddar cheese. Stroking them with any other type of cheese renders them useless.

iSin Jul 18, 2011 at 5:39 pm

I would LOVE to win a copy of this, it is almost impossible for me to buy the app at the moment and it would be really useful for me. I really hope i can get a copy of this one, Thank you so much CrackBerry for this chance.

Fenlenus Jul 18, 2011 at 5:39 pm

Nice i would like to win.

spoettel Jul 18, 2011 at 6:09 pm

I hope RIM will not go the same way as Apple!
So I'm happy to hear the news about Shapes IM+ and would be much happier if I win one of the free copies.

Thank you! :-)

PostMortem Jul 18, 2011 at 6:13 pm

Sounds like progress, so here's hoping. I haven't used IM+ in AGES!

adrenaline_x Jul 18, 2011 at 6:15 pm

i just switched back to a blackberry after 3 years using an iphone. Tired of issues with my iphone 4 and now need apps for my 9700 and playbook!

TallPaul86 Jul 18, 2011 at 6:16 pm

Wow! would love an IM app for my PlayBook, especially if it gets the integration with the BlackBerry Push service!! i'll defo out my name down for this awesome prize!!

ZachTyson Jul 18, 2011 at 6:21 pm

nirajshah8 Jul 18, 2011 at 6:23 pm

would love this app and cannot wait for it!

IvanAMANation Jul 18, 2011 at 6:29 pm

I think that is real cool of IM+ team to do that for Crackberry. Thats how you build good relationships. My man Kevin is going to be the official Go-To Guy for RIM and Blackberry users. RIM should just buy Crackberry.com for $50Million and make him the President of CB.com!!!!!! ........ Is that enough Brown Nosing to get a license, Kev'??? :D

trsbbs Jul 18, 2011 at 6:31 pm

Glad to see things are getting worked out for them..

Sometimes it takes a poke in the eye to get someones attention.

A7omic Jul 18, 2011 at 6:43 pm

Hopefully all is well in two weeks.

megabus Jul 18, 2011 at 6:43 pm

galuple Jul 18, 2011 at 7:13 pm

Would be awesome if RIM would get their act together and approve this backlog of apps.

Can't wait to get this app. It's sad that such extreme measures had to be taken to get RIM's attention.

I will even give you a fair write up on it. (NOT like BGR - scams and lies)
