This is exciting, right?
HTML EMAIL VIEWING HERE WE COME
it must be happening bc im not getting any emails!!! Woo-hoo (thats the first time i've woo-hoo'd for no emails)
also email will not send at this time......
this sucks i cant get any of my messages!!!
HTML will be automatic or we need to wait for a OS upgrade?
If you are on 4.5 you need to update your service books, if you are not on 4.5 you will need to upgrade.
Ugh.
im guessing its OS we gotta wait for. thats just a guess.
i got OS 4.5 beta public. its a bit slow (apparently not made for a curve) but the message viewing is alot nicer to the eye, although no html viewing on it.
This is not cool. I almost loose a project because i couldn't get emails...
Cry me a river here.
Hope its not an english project.
Finally, the time as arrived. Yes
at 12:17am pacific, BIS seemed to work again, possibly for only an instnt, as i got all my emails since its gone down all within a few seconds. hmmmmm no changes on BIS website.
Nor will their be, the services will not become fully functional until basically the 30th, read my lower comment.
Everyone can expect this tomorrow as well....the install of 2.5 was tonight (the 28th) and 2.5 will be "turned on" or "activated" tomorrow night (the 29th).
I cannot tell the Louisville area had any outage.

Thanks for the head's up crackberry, I had no idea things like this ever happened!
Because my BB isn't getting any messages. I don't know know whats going on.
I didn't see anything happen to my phone...I've been getting emails and texts all night and day
Okay, I am not at all familier with all this stuff.
I dont get phone service at home. (yes, I live in the sticks. They have to pump in sunshine. ) and I have not got internet service on my phone. (a travesty I know.. but I use it more as a planner, and since it only works on the days I go to town which is once a week... whats the point?)
Should I have DL something already? will it just update and be done like my computer does with microsoft?
My hubby does have internet on his, anything special he should do?
Well, as of 10:42 this morning, my BB is still out. I can't send or receive texts or emails OR get on the internet. Arrrgggg, this is more than annoying.
