Which method do you use most when communicating from your BlackBerry?

Email/50%, for business, etc.
SMS/40%; for everyone
BBM/10%; great for overseas friends, & clients/FREE!

60% Email, 35% SMS (via Google Voice), 5% Google Talk chat, 0% BBM

BBM and Email.

I mostly bbm or SMS ppl.. And once in a while when I need to ill call

Thank God for unlimited texting. Its a tie between that & communicating through the facebook app. After 3 years of never having a single bbm contact, I started deleting bbm as a matter of course with each successive BB...why have it taking up space when its useless to me?

I feel embarrassed saying mostly phone calls since it seems most people don't use their phones for that too much lol.

I used to use email a lot but since my job has changed I don't use it as much. It is still my favorite thing to do with a BB though. Nothing like typing out an email on the keyboard.

The other methods do get used just not a lot.

I use everything, so I had to look to see what I used most. email won by a small margin over sms (text), followed by voice (phone). Everything else is a small percentage (even BBM!)

Ever since BBM music, I talk to people all over the world using BBM music!

What would be good is to be able to integer Facebook chat msn text kik whatsapp and all the others through bbm as only one im service.

SaskTel has horrible data services in my area. BBM, WhatsApp, web browsing frequently takes 10 mins. So sms is the only real way to go if you like speed.

Sms. A large majority of my colleagues, friends, family and relatives are still using non-smartphone phones. It's a pity because I really like BBM. Use it extensively with 1 or 2 of my friends who also use BlackBerry.

BBM is my communication tool of choice, because where I'm from there is no unlimited texting plan. BB is by far the most popular smartphone, although the phone company is now pushing Android devices, so we'll see how that goes. I have about 40 contacts which is fairly low compared to other people.

well, i have unlimited sms/mms plan. so i can say bbm isn't that essential to me, but i still prefer to use bbm if the contact is using bb, just because of the "D" and "R"

I went from SMS to BBM and back to SMS....this was due to friends going to and from BlackBerry. Now I like email better but don't use it as much as I would like to.

BBM a lot. I use a lot of air time too, but I think I'd give up airtime before BBM.

I've been using KIK messenger the most since most of my friends are a mix of Droid and iPhone users. It just SUCKS that I can't send pics via KIK while Droid and iPhone users can. That's the #1 and only thing I don't like about KIK, other than that it's fast and responsive and best of all, cross platformed.

1. Email (I'm old and a lawyer; email still rules).
2. Google chat: wife and most of my friends use Gmail/Gtalk.
3. SMS/Text: distant 2nd to Gtalk
4. Phone (with Google Voice app): love this! I can call clients w/o them getting my cell #.
5. BBM: uninstalled (to free up app memory) after my last BBM contact left BB.

Mostly email for me, with BBM a very close second. I rarely make phone calls, I've been on the phone for a total of 2 hrs and 35 minutes since I got my 9930 on release day, but a hour and 50 of those minutes was spent on the phone with Verizon helping a friend with her Android.

BBM
I use bb only because of BBM

I almost never use BBM :( Does it mean that my BB isn't suited for me?

BBM all the way. I email when I have to reply to something and I gtalk when someone is on the PC, SMS is meh, I hate it, so I made everyone jump on BlackBerry Messenger. Contact list when I initially got my BB was 7, I made almost my whole youth group and friends jump to BB, I brought about 25 people to BB and about 8 to the PlayBook. RIM should start paying me now. :)

Mine is bbm. I mainly talk to my wife alot sl the rest is phone, email or text mixed together. I already told my kids that if they get a phone from me that it would be a blackberry so they will eventually be on bbm as well.

I would actually LOVE to see the results by region. My guess would be higher BBM outside of the US, and higher SMS within. Could be wrong, but would be very interesting to see.

where is the 9860 on the Blackberry website??????

BBM and email for me. Though email is mostly work related.

Pure bbm. And a few sms to people who don't have a blackberry.

New method of communication. I've learned to curse it out in 7 languages!

I can't vote in the poll because, as it's a business and personal device, I use all pretty equally on a daily basis.

BB is a powerfull communication machine, and i take advantage of that.

I'm using:

-25% BBmsn (wife, doctor)
-25% SmS (daughter, clients, boss)
-25% email (work, friends)
-15% social networks (chat, twitter, Facebook)
-10% phone calls (i dont' speak so much)

That's all, falks!

Most of my friends don't have BlackBerries. So, I use SMS the most.

60% Email, 35% SMS (via Google Voice), 5% Google Talk chat, 0% BBM

I'm outside the US, so most of my friends and acquaintances have BBM. I use BBM most of the time. We use it at work, plus I have about 50 BBM contacts.

I also read lots of email, and send a few emails each day.

I occasionally send an SMS.

Work 15% Email
Some Friends 20% SMS
Family and friends 60% BBM
Others 5%

and this pool thing is not good....we should chose more then one answer cause most of us dont use only BBM or SMS.

Cheers.

blackberry and email, to me anyways, still the mail staple of my usage. now with my playbook; its all playbook. best combo ever - 9900 n playbook.

BBM definitely the most, closely followed by Facebook. Little SMS or email.

I'm on Google Talk and What's App with friends.
All my work related colleagues have a BB, we're on BB Groups for event planning.

My wife is pretty much the only one I BBM with, but I end up communicating with her much more than anyone else. EVerybody else gets text and emails

I selected other because I use Google chat. SMS would be next. I only have one contact on BBM. :(

25% e-mail, 25% SMS & the rest BBM!

used to be bbm but most of my contacts have jumped ship. SMS all day!
