RIM is planning to release BlackBerry Messenger for iOS devices. The new notification system should land on the the App Store on April 26th says a MacRumors Forum poster:

RIM had a Social Media conference today in Toronto, and my entire college business and marketing class was invited to the event. RIM’s co-ceo Jim Balsillie revealed that they plan to bring BBM and “other services” to iPhone on April 26 via the app store. Balsillie also revealed that they plan to release an update to the app this summer which will take advantage of a new “notification system”!

BGR also stated that RIM is taking the BlackBerry Messenger app to iOS and Android as a way to tackle the copycats already in the App Store.

Update: Debunked// really really FAKE…
