Here in India unlimited International BBM service costs around US$ 5/- per month. I personally do not subscribe to this service as I am a retired person and have Internet + wifi connectivity 24/7. I use my BB for use by my foreign visitors.

I however have a feeling that it is likely to backfire. I have at least 6-7 persons in my circle who are stuck to their BBs simply because they have their own circle of BBM users and are currently reluctant to switch to Android platform. Once BBM is available on Android there is nothing to prevent them from switching where they will also have other additional options like Viber and Skype. BTW the latter sucks big time on iOS platform.

So unless they are going to change from hardware to service providers I feel it is a bad move.
