Yes, all carriers will get this update evenutally as RIM upgrades its servers. We in North America should see it by mid-summer, hopefully.

They promised this will work in BIS 2.5:

Support for Windows Live™ Hotmail® integration

Integrating a Windows Live Hotmail email account results in the following:

• Real-time delivery of email messages replaces the standard 15 minute polling interval
• No restrictions; all Windows Live Hotmail accounts can be integrated

Windows Live Hotmail email accounts integrated using BlackBerry Internet Service 2.4 or earlier must be deleted and then re-integrated to turn on the enhanced features.

Taken from: New features in BlackBerry Internet Service 2.5


Does it work?

[ricpac]

Yes, Hotmail now works--guaranteed.

[cellindo]

I've got no problems with re-activation as all you need to do is re-enter your password on the BIS website once every 90 days plus--you also get an email reminder before you need to do that (I've read that somewhere). As for your issue with the "From Mail Name" not appearing on emails sent from your BB, make sure to set the "Your Name" correctly on your Hotmail account on the BIS website. Let me know if you need screenshots.

How would I get to know if my carrier has upgraded to BIS 2.5?

[Berry One]

How?

A) Visit this web site often, read news.

or

B) Create fresh free hotmail account and every few days try integrating it. The day you can - your carrier has upgraded to BIS 2.5.

[ricpac]

@dilipc, call your carrier. Or better yet, create a hotmail account and integrate it. If you are successful then your carrier is on BIS 2.5 as what BerryOne has also pointed out.

Also, follow the link I posted on reply #31.

[dilipc]

Thanks guys! I set up a hotmail account, now its called a live.com account. I presume this would be the same as hotmail as far as BIS 2.5 is concerned?
