To clarify:
1) If you are on a BES pointed at the North American RIM Network, you
WILL be affected by this outage, even if you switch to an EMEA or AP
SIM.
2) If you are on a BES pointed at the EMEA or AP RIM Network and are
roaming in North America and have switched to a North American SIM,
you WILL be affected.
3) If you are on a BES pointed at the EMEA or AP RIM Network and are
roaming in North America with your original (EMEA or AP) SIM, you WILL
NOT be affected.
4) If you are on a BES pointed at the EMEA or AP RIM Network and are

Per dataoutage web site, there is another planned upgrade outage of the N.A. region scheduled for 06/28/08. This one will apparently be longer as it is scheduled from 00:00 to 08:00 eastern time on that date.
