Black(out) Berry
 

NEW YORK (AP) -- An outage has disconnected BlackBerry smart phones across North America.

AT&T Inc. says the disruption Monday is affecting all wireless carriers. AT&T first learned about the problem at about 3:30 p.m. ET.

There's no word on the cause or when the problem might be fixed.

BlackBerry maker Research in Motion did not immediately return a phone call

outage has been resolved in S FL

Ditto NW Florida.

I got notice of it right away (3 ish) and they scheduled a fix for 10 pm. THey want 15 minutes.

THe alternate patch is working for my company, which is global, on line, and working. I have not seen a problem yet.

My AT&T Tilt been working all day... or course, it's 3G and not Blackberry....

Blackberries out of season here, but the last crop were really nice:D

My hate for Blackberry smartphone knows no limit.

Thats why there called crackberrys.

As with so many other things, the Blackberry was the first of its kind and for that, no matter what they do, they will always have name recognition. That is the way it is and the way it has always been! I personally didn't mind mine but just because I didn't mind it doesn't mean by any means it is the best out there. i would never suggest such a thing!

This is false. RIM was not the first company to introduce a PDA/Phone. It wasn't even the first to provide backend service for such a device. Glad you liked yours though. I find them to be a complete chore to use.
