I love groups. The family group or family has allows us to share things with everyone in the family. Where it really comes in handy is with the lists. We have a grocery list. Any of us can add an item to the list, and it shows up on all of our devices, almost immediately. Whoever goes to the...

I'm using BBM on my Note 2 to chat with friends and family on iPhone and Android. BBM Groups come in very handy for group conversations, and the group lists are already a big plus. Is it something everyone will use? If course not. If you only chat with certain people, then what you are using...

It's not about the full capability of the OS, but the learning curve to use it. iOS has a very simple learning curve. That means that people who aren't tech savvy can pick up ways to use it a lot easier. That level of intuitiveness means that someone who has never held an iPhone or iPad before...
