BIS 3.0 Upgrade Scheduled for EMEA March 14th






It looks like Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) are getting the BIS 3.0 upgrade this weekend. This is a highly anticipated BIS upgrade because it will bring 2-way Gmail sync, which I’m personally elated about. The update is expected to arrive during a scheduled maintenance for March 14th. Details below:

Maintenance Summary: BlackBerry Internet Service v2.8 upgrade to BlackBerry Internet Service v3.0

Impact: BlackBerry Internet Service subscribers may be unable to send or receive messages, use the BlackBerry Internet Service web site, or perform activities such as creating new accounts, accessing their Internet mailbox, integrating third-party email accounts, or viewing email attachments during the maintenance.

Wireless service providers and device resellers may be unable to use BlackBerry administration web sites or perform activities such as creating subscriber accounts or provisioning services for subscribers during the maintenance. [0214]



Ticket Number: BBCHG45911

Change Window Start Date and Time: 14 March 2010 02:00:00 (GMT)

Change Window End Date and Time: 14 March 2010 06:00:00 (GMT)

Estimated Duration of Service Impact: 4 hour(s) and 0 minute(s)

% of Subscribers Affected: 100.00 (estimated)

We’ve heard rumors that this update will be coming to North America at the end of the month, and my fingers are crossed that this rumor is true.
