Blackberry Outage in North America

[darkmanCANADA]

Anyone else having issues with Blackberry mail and/or internet browsing? My mail is delayed up to 30 minutes and internet is non-existent.

Here is some info on the outage: http://www.rim.com/newsroom/service-update.shtml

Yeah it is driving me nuts too when our office is split between BB, iOS and Android. This is going to drive BB down even more. Are you on BIS or BES?

BIS with Telus.

If only I didnt have 2 more years on my phone contract, I'd be getting rid of it now. I love my BB but hate when it keeps going down like this.

Wut?

They already have huge overseas plants in Argentina and Malaysia, not just their measly waterloo. Secondly, why would I support a inferior product? This is why the Big 3 fail, without intervention making shitty products, and calling out the public for not supporting their company as a patriotic person should. Make a better phone, and I might switch.

Their stocks have been taking a beating. Now they're have major outages. Te iphone4s is being released ASAP. I forsee RIM being thing of the past very soon.

Re: Blackberry Outage in North America

Having taken a deep look at the financial position of RIM with my last class (Final Project) at there last year end the company appeared priming itself for a takeover with a very clean balance sheet and perhaps not as much R&D as one would expect in their position. Just my opinion, I think if any tech players wanted into the wireless game it would be the best place to start.

And to lighten the mood (despite the spelling mistake)...

Love it! It's truly a clusterfuck for RIM right now though. I've had easily 20 calls today, from people asking if the can switch their BB to an iPhone, without losing their number.
