How to detect the version of Blackberry Messenger installed on a device from a Webworks App

Question

I'm working on a BlackBerry WebWorks app that connects to the Blackberry Messenger Platform. However, a user's device must have at least BBM v6 before a webworks app can connect to the BBM platform on such device.

Now, the challenge is, I need to be able to know the version of BBM running on the user's device so I can display an appropriate message telling the user to upgrade if the user does not meet the BBM platform requirement.

How do I go about this?

Thanks in advance.

If you want to know the version of the BBM installed in the Device. Look at the BBMProxyDemo within the BBM SDK it shows how to get this info. And you can also see this thread on supports forum
