None of these are especially created for mobile. Or aimed squarely at BBM with the same features.
I had been thinking about creating BBM for other platforms simply because I'd like to have it on my iPhone.
How would you create a BBM client for other platforms? You wouldn't be able to authenticate with BB servers since you have no PIN.
WhatsApp is a near approximation of BBM on the iPhone (and other devices, I believe).
Their reliability isn't great, however.
WhatsApp has better reliability, more handset clients, more features, and more users.
