Blackberry Outage: RIM’s network is down
By: Daniel Chubb | September 10, 2009
Earlier today we reported about Verizon and WiFi equipped Blackberry phones for 2010, and while we have heard a lot of news of late about the RIM Blackberry brand, outage is not on the list.
In the last hour it’s just this news we are hearing, for some users the RIM BlackBerry network is down. According to Business Insider, some users are experiencing problems when trying to connect to the Research In Motion / Blackberry service.
The article here explains that there are many reports on Twitter, and these tweets are complaining of Blackberry outage, but this may be limited to just the BlackBerry Internet service.
Do you use a Blackberry Smartphone? If so, how is your service tonight and what part of the country are you in?
