I realize that this is the iPhone thread, but as an iPhone user myself, I'm genuinely curious about the benefits of this BBM thingy.

You can update your status on BBM and have a profile picture and it makes sending dirty pictures to the girl who wants nothing to do with you a lot easier. Also makes stalking a lot easier. You can see if they read the message or not. D shows up for delivered and R for read.
I do miss BBM and will always wish I had it, but the iphone is just miles better in so many other categories I can not live without one now. I didn't even realize my blackberry is now useless for the internet.
Correct me if I'm wrong but would the internet work on an iphone through wifi if I had no plan?
