Is Blackberry becoming popular in Thailand?

[dummy_plug]

In June it seemed I finally started seeing Blackberry ads whereas in January I didn't even think I saw one single shop selling them. Are people in Thailand starting to use BB?

(Need to know so I can start getting all the LBs in my BBM!)

Yes it's the latest status symbol. When I was there a few months back they had just been launched and I was at a club with some Thai celebrity actresses and they spent the whole night messaging each other across the table instead of talking. Now they message me at home every night of which 90% makes no sense

Blackberrys are in season right now I just got some in Tesco , they're lovely with ice cream and a very pleasant way to round off a Sunday afternoon perhaps accompanied by a stiff Pimms  

Not sure how popular they are in Thailand though .

Bought the girl friend one last May ( which earned me points) .....

An all her friends have one too...... (none P4P ).... so I think Yes....

[dummy_plug]

Non P4P eh? You my friend, need to introduce me...all LBs, hopefully?

[dummy_plug]

Thinking about getting my gf one too...she's torn between the Curve 8900 or the Storm 9530...

[katoeylover]

u bad man u have GF.... ... yes mainly LB's...... next time Im in town sure....

[dummy_plug]

It never hurts to have more friends!

BTW, did your gf go with True or AIS? Which one out of the two, if you know, has better service and reliable connections? I've read bad things about both haha.

Anyways, the one reason I'm interested in hooking her up with a BB is that she can use BBM, which is effectively an always-on SMS/MSN thing. Its really nice when we're apart because its essentially "free" to communicate while on the go. I don't know bout you guys, but to send an international SMS and use mobile MSN costs quite a bit so this can actually 'save' me a bit. Probably don't save in the end, but we can communicate a lot more and easily.
