In a move that we actually saw coming, the Canadian company, BlackBerry, will now allow users customize their BBM pins.

The notable changes in the new BBM include, vanity PIN’s, removable ads and a new avatar badging. These features are now up for testing.

New Features

BBM will now offer a new service called Subscriptions that will allow users to pay for exclusive access to specific features. What’s included in this first release of Subscriptions?

Vanity PINs: have a fun idea for a PIN? Looking for an easier PIN to communicate with friends? Try out this new feature and customize your own personal BBM PIN!

Remove Ads: hide sponsored ads and sponsored invites in BBM with this subscription.

Avatar Badging: Show off your special BBM status with a badge. This badge also appears on display pictures that have an active subscription.

Subscriptions can be purchased using available payment methods in the BBM Shop. Subscriptions is available at a monthly cost and requires ongoing payments to continue the subscription.

According to reports, custom PIN options shows it will cost $1.99 per month, while the option to remove ads will be $0.99 per month. There’s no telling if these prices are final, as it is a beta and subject to change but it’s interesting to note them either way.

To download the new BBM for now, you have to be part of a very limited beta testers group. Its not available publicly for now.

Good news for the lovers of blackberry and BBM at large....

In Nigeria it has to be free or.....

cool.. it will make more sense!

I was driving down a street along Alausa, having
just finished answering a call, when a policeman,
suddenly, opened the passenger door, entered and
jam-locked it.
(The door lock is faulty)
As usual, he wanted 'something' from me for
calling while driving...
Suddenly, he saw the big Rothweiller dog, Jackie,
at the back seat of the car, with tongue stuck
out,
spittle dripping and fangs barring, staring fiercely
at him.
Policeman: (Shaking)
Ah! You carry dog?

Me: (I bone face) Yes, I carry dog. Dat one na
offense?

Policeman: (Feeling uncomfortable)
Na where una dey come from?

Me: From hospital.

Policeman: Ehen! you sick?

Me: No, na person wey the dog bite we go see.
The
person almost die sef.

Policeman: (Terribly shaken by now)
Ehen! But why the dog dey shake head like that?

Me: Na so im dey do if e wan bite person.

Policeman: The dog know you?

Me: Yes nah, no be my dog?

Policeman: (Sweating)
This your door, how you dey open am?

Me: How you take enter?

Policeman: Abeg! Na since I dey try open am, but
e no open.
(The dog was now getting impatient and gave a
small growl, its tongue almost touching the
policeman's left ear).

Policeman: (Now sliding forward)Oga, I take God
beg you, open the door for me make I comot. I no
go collect anythin from you.

Me: How much you go pay me?

Policeman: Ah! I neva hustle anythin since
morning. Na only N1,000 dey wit me.

Me: You neva ready.
(I looked back at the dog).

Policeman: Ok ok ok ok ok, e reach N2,000. The
oda N1,000 na my wife own, but I go give you
join.
(Now, close to tears as the dog was becoming
really impatient)
Oga, I be......g, Oga, sorry. Take the N2,000 make
you open the door plssssssse!

Me: Oya, bring am. (I collected the N2,000 &
allowed him out of the car)

Policeman: God punish you. , e no go ever
better for you and your yeye dog. Wicked man!!!
