LONDON, 03rd December 2009 - Nimbuzz (www.nimbuzz.com), the award-winning* multi-community mobile instant message application, has announced the launch of its groundbreaking new app for BlackBerryr smartphones, that runs as a native application enabling users to connect with each other via their favourite social networks.
Just one of a number of industry `firsts' contained in the new release, native functionality allows Nimbuzz to run constantly in the background, have alert notifications `pushed' to the home screen and integrate notifications with sound profiles, ensuring users never miss another message.
Free to download and free to use, the Nimbuzz app also supports instant messaging through Skype, allowing BlackBerryr smartphone users to bring their Skype contacts with them wherever they go. In addition, online chat is available for other communities including MSN, GoogleTalk, Yahoo!, Facebook and MySpace, making Nimbuzz the most comprehensive mobile social messaging application available for the Blackberryr.
Nimbuzz, which recently won the `Connect On Blackberry' award at the Blackberry Alliance Program's EMEA Innovation Awards in Rome, is optimised for BlackBerryr smartphones running OS v4.6 or higher, including the BlackBerryr StormT, BlackBerryr BoldT, BlackBerryr TourT, BlackBerryr PearlT Flip and BlackBerryr CurveT 8900 smartphones.
The application is available free to download now from Nimbuzz.com and BlackBerryr App WorldT (www.blackberry.com/appworld).
Evert-Jaap Lugt, founder and CEO of Nimbuzz says: "We are delighted to offer Nimbuzz as the first credible, all-in-one social messaging solution for BlackBerry smartphones. It demonstrates why we have become market leaders in mobile internet communication integrating the award-winning functionality of Nimbuzz to get the best out of each operating system and handset. This 1st generation client for Blackberryr will continue to be developed and will evolve to provide the full Nimbuzz experience over time."
