I have registered with RIM for the push notification evaluation. But i cant find good sources for implementing push notifications. There are some samples in the sdk but i couldnt find out a way to implement them. So, i am looking for a good tutorial where i could find step by step implementation of push notification services...

You sure you read the SDK? Because RIM provide all the exemple you need. Do you have a more specific question ? – Michael B. Jun 07 '10 at 10:21

I have never done server side scripting. So understanding the server side scripting is difficult for me...I need detail steps of running the notification samples... – Rahul Kalidindi Jun 07 '10 at 12:55

RIM's samples for the server side involve setting up a web application container (e.g. Tomcat), setting up a backend database, and then building their Spring-based application. This sample web app handles things like device registration, content subscription, etc. and features a portal to manage everything.
The bare minimum that is required, though, is to send a WAP Push message which is just an HTTP POST to their Push Service servers. Here is a thread from the BlackBerry Support Forums that describes how to use their low-level PAP API to construct this message. Pay attention in particular to the messages by the user mdicesare.
There's also another SO question that has some tips.

Well, mdicesare is one of the author of BlackBerry's push service after all. – David J. Y. Tang Jul 17 '13 at 20:42
