I haven't read that but I guess it will happen the same time they drop BES 5 full version. For all the new BB10 devices you will need the new BES (called BDS at the moment, will be re-branded to BES10 next year) or you can use the native ActiveSync without any server, but less Enterprise features.
I understand. I need to make a decission and inform one of my clients as they have a BES Express server for 30 users and might not go forwrd with BES server. You said that the BB10 devices will connect with native activesync which I know works like a dream but what do you mean when you say without Enteprise features?
No BES Policies, no Routing over MDS Connection Service, No Application controls/push... All you have on your BES (Express) is missing. If you do not use a server, you have to connect them directly to your EAS Server which means it has to be publicly available (or using VPN if it will be supported)
Well having the MAPI/CDO release is not enought.. RIM has to release a new installer that will be able to create a profile with Outlook Anywhere settings.

The new MAPI/CDO will require different parameters that did not exist in previous verisions. Basically it needs to creaate a profile using Outlook Anywhere (RPC over HTTPS) to connect to the Exchange 2013 server. The existing installer for v5.0.4 does not do this (i have tried).
Unfortunately RIM is not very forthcoming when the new version will be available, but since the new MAPI/CDO is not going to be officially released by MS until Exchange 2010 SP3 is released, I would not expect for RIM to release their new version until then.
