I have no idea..
I'm just happy to have made the change..
from 44.99 to 29.99!!!

I just called and the rep said she had no access to that plan. I will tru again next week.

She most likely thought BIS meant "Business".

Just called up and added this to my account. Not confirmed yet, but I'm under the impression it's for BIS only, no BES. This page seems like Cingular considers BIS and BES to be different. http://cingular.com/midtolarge/blackberry

Hmm i swear i made a post on this but its gone?!?!

well according to cingular's press release, this is only for BIS, BES will still be at 44.99 :(
"The new consumer-friendly BlackBerry Personal Plan from Cingular will be available beginning Monday, June 12, in Cingular retail stores across the U.S. and includes unlimited e-mail and Web browsing for $29.99 per month, with a qualified voice plan. The BlackBerry 7130c is available for as low as $199.99 with a two-year contract and qualified voice plan.

The BlackBerry 7130c is also available for enterprise customers using BlackBerry Enterprise ServerTM with service at $44.99 per month with a qualified voice plan and unlimited data usage or for $49.99 a month as a data only option."

Good info!

It says that it will be available with a "qualified" voice plan. Which plans qualify you for the discout? I've got the $39.99, 450 anytime and 5000 night and weekend plan. Will I be qualified to get the $29.99 BB unlimited plan?

Yes, that's what I have... and I switched to the 29.99 BIS today.

I think is available for pretty much any type of voice plan.
My plan was a limited time offer without Rollover and without unlimited NW and it still qualified.
just my .02

Cingular's BIS 2.0 available already?
 

I just noticed that the web client login screen is completely different.
But, once I login, I see no differences..
What are the steps to change to BIS 2.0?
Am I missing something?

I noticed the web client login screen is different too.

Yes, Cingular's BIS 2.0 now available.

BUT WHEN i login, i still get the old web client...
any steps need to be taken?

I just called and spoke to a CSR who wasn't aware of the new plan, but after searching, he found it and added it to my account. He didn't even ask me what my voice plan was or mention it in any way. Woo-hoo! Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with the extra $180 I'll have at the end of the year!

I see the new log in page, but was not offerred a chance to upgrade. Fine by me under my new email strategy.

Ok, I dont get the option to upgrade, what e them removed do you suggest I do, I'm interested in upgrading..Probably have them removed me from the BIS and re-add?

Wait few days. Upgrade, when offered, is much easier process, literally click of the button. There had been talks that you may not be able to keep your login name if you ask them remove your account, and you have to add it again.

It took Verizon few days before they offered upgrade to everyone. Must be standard procedure with carrier, or RIM.

What number did you use? I tried the CS and Billing numbers and keep getting the "Our Offices are now closed ......"

Thanks
