So the day is finally here, the one everyone has been waiting for, BIS 3.0 upgrade for North America. Now yes this is excellent news to hear but it doesn’t come cheap and the reason is that the upgrade process to BIS 3.0 will require some down time but hey it’s for the better. Below is the scheduled outage dates and times.
“There will be scheduled network maintenance by Research In Motion (RIM) affecting BIS customers between 0100 CT / 0200 EDT on March 28th and 0500 CT / 0600 EDT on March 28th.
Blackberry will be performing a BlackBerry Internet Service v2.8 upgrade to BlackBerry Internet Service v3.0
BlackBerry Internet Service subscribers may be unable to send or receive messages using their BlackBerry hosted email account or integrated third-party email accounts, view email attachments, activate email service, or request to see “”more”" text during the maintenance.
Wireless service providers and device resellers may be unable to create subscriber accounts or provision services for subscribers.
The estimated duration of impact is 4 hours and affects 100% of BIS customers”
So it doesn’t look like its going to be too bad, as long as everything goes well.
