When I saw this KB article, I really scratched my head at first saying "How the heck are they going to do this? ... sounds like a knife-edge type move ... or just move the computer object!". Well, it's for Domino only.

Task 2 - Change the account used to start the BlackBerry services.

Right click the service that uses the Active Directory account.
Update the log on as credentials.
