    Just got the internal email. Rollout starting 10pm on Sunday. On the 31st you can download from blackberry's website (after 10 PM) numbers ending in 0 will get the update first (I believe by ota) and they will work up in numbers. If you are not on .75 you won't get the poke to do the update

    Further clarification. Software .148. Platform 4.0.0.181. Release .203. This is not software 4.7.0.203 it is the same .148 that we are currently using. If you have .148 now you do not need to do anything, they are identical
    If you are running a leaked OS you should still be able to update ota

    Customers NOT on the original approved 4.7.0.75 rev will NOT receive the Poke.(example any non approved software) They may download manually via Web SL( Directly from BB website) starting Sunday May 31 at 10 pm or Desktop manager from VZW.com starting June 3rd.
    Availability sched is as follows:
    This will be an 11 day process as we have 1.2 million customers on BIS and 500,000 customers on BES.(BES administrators will receive Poke on Sunday 5/31 @10 p.m.Customers on BES will need to check with their IT as to when they will receive Poke)
    The Poke will start on Sunday 5/31 at 10 p.m. eastern time.
    MTN's ending in 0 will start the process and move up in numbers over the 11 days.
    This rev will take 19 to 24 minutes to complete depending on options selected, however it can take up to 2 hours depending on service area.
    How do you get the OTA wireless upgrade?
    Website will be updated sortly to show rev 148

    If we check for the update via our phone will it be visible to us (even if our number doesn't end in 0 and we're running a leaked, non 148 OS)?

    This is great news. Finally Storm owners who don't use leaked OS' won't have to suffer anymore.

    Can I do the OTA upgrade if I'm not on
    v75? Or do I need to download off the web and use apploader?
    I'm running v122 pushed out by Bell (but i'm on verizon).

    Can probably do the ota. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the poke is just an email or a text saying go do it right?

    I just plugged my storm in and the DM said there was update. So I did, and guess what, it was .148. I thought this was getting pushed out on Sunday, not today. Guess I got a present early.

    Yes. If the rel/app/pl version numbers are the same, then they are identical and no update is needed.

    But in the graphic from VZW it looks like 4.7.0.203 on the leaked version we are looking at 4.7.0.148 and platform version 4.0.0.181.

    What gives?
