Just received this from a good friend that wishes to remain nameless.

This affects North America and Asia Pacific only.
On Sunday, November 25th, Research In Motion (RIM) will be performing a
firmware upgrade of the Blackberry infrastructure that will cause ALL
Blackberry services to be down for approximately 20 minutes.  Their
scheduled maintenance window for this work is:
 
Start time:  12:00am (Midnight) EST Sunday morning
End time: 3:00am EST on Sunday morning
 
Functionality that will be affected includes:

    * BlackBerry Enterprise Servers (BES) may be unable to connect to
the BlackBerry Infrastructure during the maintenance.  I recommend that
nobody even log on to any of the 4 BES servers during this time as you
may experience issues relating to the maintenance.
    * Users may be unable to send or receive any email messages during
the maintenance.
    * Users may also be unable to register their device, roam in another
location, or use other services such as Internet browsing or Blackberry
Messenger.
    * Devices may not receive new service books during the maintenance.
    * Enterprise Activations may not work during this maintenance.
    * PIN to PIN messaging may  not work during this maintenance.
