Hosted BlackBerry service from Microsoft Online Services Announced

Microsoft Online Services is now a BlackBerry certified partner and BlackBerry Alliance Elite Member. For Business Productivity Online Standard Suite, licenses and support are now a part of MOS Hosted BlackBerry service, which customers buy directly from Microsoft. Previously, customers had to purchase and provide their own licenses and support agreement, purchased through a third party, in order to use Hosted BlackBerry service, that offers most commonly requested BlackBerry capabilities, including wireless access to e-mail, calendar, tasks and contacts with global address list (GAL) integration, and device management such as device wipe and password reset. Details about the Hosted Blackberry Service can be found in the Microsoft Online Services Mobility Solutions Description. Learn more or request a Hosted BlackBerry service agreement, contact your Microsoft representative or Microsoft Online Services partner. If you don’t have a Microsoft partner or representative, you may request Hosted BlackBerry service agreement through Microsoft Online Services Customer Service.
