BlackBerry Service Out in North America

Noooooooooo!!!!!!

A major service outage afflicted users of the popular, addictive BlackBerry smart phones across the United States and Canada on Monday, wireless carriers said.

Officials with AT&T Inc. and Verizon Wireless said BlackBerry maker Research in Motion Ltd. told them customers of all wireless carriers were affected.

It was not immediately clear how many BlackBerry subscribers had problems, as some users reported being able to access their service normally Monday afternoon.

  1. Is this for serious? I’ve always liked the looks of the Blackberry smart phones.

  4. News was verified.  My government-issued one wasn’t working around 6 EST; and it uses Sprint.

    Personally, it didn’t bug me that much since it only affected one email I needed to send. 

    Besides, I’ve long viewed it as an electronic leash not a toy.
