In an interesting turn of events Kevin at CrackBerry posted some great screenshots of the new OTA Operating System updates for BlackBerry. He has a great description of the exact process necessary to update the OS over the air in the future.
It looks damn cool but sadly my sources and Kevin’s seem to be confirming that this will be available for BES 4.1.4 users only. Some OS 4.5 beta users on T-mobile and others will notice that the feature does not even show up if they are on a BIS only plan. Personally I will stick with desktop installs so that I can get the latest OS from ANY carrier but this would be a nice step in the right direction when RIM implements this.

How do you get the 4.5 software onto the BES server so that handsets can see it?
