Actualización a BIS 2.5 este fin de semana

Señores creo que ha llegado la hora de la actualización de BIS a 2.5. Hoy por la mañana me han dicho en el evento de RIM de Barcelona que el Windows Live Messanger estará disponible para su descarga el dia 21 de junio. Y ahora veo en DataOutage.com que este fin de semana hay una actualización a nivel mundial de la infraestructura de RIM. Así que saco la conclusión que este fin de semana se va a realizar la esperada y deseada actualización de BIS a 2.5 que incluye muchas novedades.

BlackBerry Infrastructure Maintenance Outage
Planned for June 21-22, 2008

The BlackBerry network provider, Research In Motion (RIM), has planned a maintenance outage scheduled for June 21 and 22, when they will interrupt BlackBerry service in order to perform upgrades to components of the Blackberry Network infrastructure.

All BlackBerry users located in North America will experience the BlackBerry outage on Saturday, June 21, from 2:00 – 6:00 a.m. EDT (06:00:00-10:00:00 GMT).

All BlackBerry users located in Asia, the Pacific and Europe will experience the BlackBerry outage on Sunday, June 22, from 2:00 a.m. – 6:00 am. EDT (06:00:00-10:00:00 GMT).

During these maintenance periods, BlackBerry subscribers will not have service, and therefore will be unable to send or receive messages, register their device, roam to other locations, or use other services such as Internet browsing.  All BlackBerry service should be restored following these listed maintenance periods.
