Although there seems to be messaging problems on the BlackBerry network at the moment meaning users can’t send or receive messages via BlackBerry Messenger, Research In Motion has now made available a new version of BlackBerry Messenger.
According to an article over on crackberry, BlackBerry Messenger version 5.0.0.57 is now available to download through the BlackBerry Messenger download website.
They say that this new release is just a maintenance release and that there are no major changes expected to be included in the download.
They also say you should still grab the update, but it is difficult to say if it will fix any issues currently being experienced. So if you do download BlackBerry Messenger 5.0.0.57 and find anything now let us know by dropping us a comment.
