It should not be long at all. Days to weeks.

Here's hoping that they get it working/publish docs for how to get it working in the final release

BAS SSO was much easier than MDS SSO. I did create new service accounts for each. One thing to note is that SSO will not work on the BES itself. You have to test from another machine on the domain. Also the URL to use is http://bas/webconsole/login. Using any other url will NOT work.

Anybody with a direct line into RIM have any hints on a release date?

It was posted to BlackBerry Universe last week. So two weeks from then or next week.

BB Universe? Checking now! Word is that you can left-click on things in the console now!

I think you mean right-click... and that was already added in SP1 and improved upon with subsequent MRs for SP1

** right-click sorry. And yes your right! I've been wrapped up in 4.1.7 lately in my test network.. I will do the 5.0.2 setup tomorrow though - Just saw on BB Universe, not only do they have the upgrader, but also the installer.

Soo.. Finally support for Mozilla FireFox (3.6), Google Chrome (4.0), & Safari (4, on computers that run Mac OS)!

Few other cool things that's new in the SP2 but I think it's best if I wait till they officially release it .. (Build the suspense)

Hi Folks..

SP2 for BES 5.0 should be available for download 8th July '10 onwards.

Cheers!!
