    Someone might want to check the time in California since that's where an announcement would be made. So how many jumped ship because it was Tuesday morning in their neck of the woods and there was no 'promised' update.

    Wouldn't they release it early morning in the time zone you live in and roll it out that way so the servers have a fairly even distribution of downloads?
    Why should I have to wait because those lazy a$$es in California can't drag their butts out of bed until 3 hours later than me?

    It's five minutes to Wednesday here...I don't think so. They wouldn't release anything before the end of the keynote anyway. It's all about showmanship.

    "YOU CURRENTLY HAVE THE LATEST SOFTWARE INSTALLED"

    So glad I didn't stay up all night.

    An all nighter...seriously? and I thought only Apple had some nutty fanatics
    Oh, how mistaken are your thoughts. There seem to be as many BlackBerry nut cases on this forum as they claim are Apple fanatics in the general population. RIM has given me enough sleepless nights thank you very much.

    At least Santa is real. Meanwhile, updates from RIM are pure folklore just like the Easter Bunny. LOL

    Heins is like a used car salesman expect with the used car salesman you can walk away with an automobile if you choose; with Heins you are left with an empty wallet and empty hands.

    No I've seen a few so they are real. They just don't come like was originally said and then speculation and rumors are spread around and many believe them. BTW since when is Santa real?

    that's not a strange message - that's normal. A strange message would have been "2.1 is available for your download pleasure.

    We have had hints directly from RIM that 2.1 is coming soon (they explicitly referred to the "upcoming" 2.1 release in its press release for the new BES service pack last week).

    Tonight might be a bit of a stretch, given how busy the entire company likely is supporting Jam Americas, but NEXT Tuesday sounds pretty promising.

    All that said, I'll be checking App World on my phone to see if a Bridge update is pending

    RIM has been saying 2.1 is "coming soon" or it's "just around the corner" for months. Last Tuesday we were told THIS Tuesday was promising. I'm done trying to figure it out. If it comes, it comes. Whatever. And this isn't aimed at you personally. I think it's great you've managed to maintain your optimism. After playing this game for over a year now, I'm just a tad fed up with it.

    You -I am becoming a little tad tired of hearing "soon" or the "around the corner" just recently I once again mentioned on Twitter to RIM....Same song and dance.... I wouldn't hold my breath or lose any sleep over this PB update...Show me before I believe it

    But wait, this game has a new twist. It's going to be revealed. In an upcoming announcement that may be pushed back a quarter to allow for more confusion and speculation.

    Doesn't matter much. The current 2.1 beta is very good.
