Ive register my WhatsApp but they havent send me my 3 digit SMS yet.

I got my WhatsApp when it was still free. That time they said it doesn't work on Msia but then again it does back then
So far I personally think that it's way better than Ping and BBM. One is that it just searched based on the phonebook. If ping you need to ask first if anyone installed one and another is that what is the username. Kinda leceh. Sometimes you can't keep track of your phonebook on who have the iphone or not. BBM the leceh part is need to get the number.
Maybe the possible drawback of Whatsapp is that sometimes you don't want to give your number to others but just want to give them your ID which Ping will make perfect sense. Then again what are the chances of every single one person have an Iphone with ping installed and with you not wanting to give your number to them? Unlikely...

Added on January 26, 2010, 7:29 am It's another totally different apps? I assumed either BB whatsapp will work only for whatsapp and BBM and normal whatsapp only for whatsapp? I wished they just integrate both. Then I just need to upgrade this one

Nope, the whatsapp for Blackberry enables cross texting with iPhone's whatsapp... Few days ago when tinkerbel told me about it, it was still on the Blackberry Appworld, now it's not available again.. They did stated u could text with iPhone's whatsapp....

just bought it for $0.99 today...so far so good..able to chat with my friend..

@eugenechiuu
So BB user need to have Whatsapp for BB? If they are offering it free maybe alot of BB user will download it to the benefit of growing iPhone Whatsapp fanbase. Quite a number of BB users are there for the BBM instead of normal "office" usage I think.

Yay my Whatsapp working fine

Cool...Now give us your fone number..hahahaha

Yea they need to buy that App in order to text with Iphone whatsapp users... Well in long term it's worthed for BB users who have a lot of frens using iPhone... Still, if the price is lower then it would attract more ppl to buy it...

i've install Whatsapp but i put in a different mobile number, and it still works, basically your username is actually your phone number or whatever number u key in

er i think the server was down that time... i got mine working the next day already... how about yours?

Yes, that's right. So if your friend have your number it will check if that number is registered or not and they can text you instantly on Whatsapp. As long as you put in any different number but still yours should be fine. Otherwise it will create domino effect..haha.

i don't really fancy this app to be honest.

very sleek and innovative design and concept, yes

but because i use it very often, messages sometimes fail to load inside the app itself.

meaning, i know that there is an incoming message from whatsapp because of the push capability.

however, upon entering the app, the message simply fail to load (happened a couple of times already)

as a result of that, i'm switching between ping and this one intermittently

No idea on that but then again I'm using it only in Wifi spots here except when I'm in Malaysia. So far it's great since I bought 2 phones for me and my gf and occasionally chatted up with my colleagues. Can't gauge it pretty well unless I communicated alot with it.

i'm hardly home (except to catch some winks) and hence i rely heavily on the carrier network.

in another word, i'm perpetually online.

furthermore, i kinda like ping, because the incoming message tone "ping ping!" is very loud, distinctive and ability to diffract well.

actually to be honest, you guys may or may not, know that whatsapp has an inbuilt stalking mechanism.i'm always curious to learn if a gal is deliberately trying to avoid me

you can always find out with ease, if a person has read your message and decides not to reply your whatsapp message because the app logs on, a user's last online time (ping or its nearest competitors do not possess such a feature)
