Looking at the top 10 Free BlackBerry apps that have been download,  the top 5 are-BBM, Facebook, Poynt, Pandora and Crunch SMS? Twitter for BlackBerry came in 6th right after CrunchSMS which is kind of surprising, but yet isn’t. You would think by now Twitter would be in the top 5 but the truth is, there are more people out there who use SMS than using Twitter for BlackBerry. Another reason why T4BB is so low is because of the 3rd party Twitter clients out there. Not every BlackBerry user tweets from T4BB. I myself am a SocialScope user and we must account for UberSocial’s BlackBerry tweeters.
