Quote:
Users of the Research In Motion (RIMM) Blackberry are apparently suffering a massive wireless data outage. A tech support staffer here at Dow Jones told me he was informed in an email from AT&T that the outage is affecting “all regions, and all markets.” An AT&T (T) spokesman told me this is a RIMM problem, not an AT&T issue, and “appears to be affecting all the major carriers in North America.”

AT&T doesn’t know the cause, or have an expected repair time.

Update: Reuters is reporting that Research In Motion warned clients in an e-mail that there is a “critical severity outage” in the Americas.


Confirmed this is affecting Sprint BlackBerry users (Verizon as well).

Sad

Limping along slowly.

Seems to be up and running on my Sprint BlackBerry 8830.

But, there are a ton of emails that have yet to be delivered.

Blackberry Messenger Works.

Sending mail OK.

Receiving - still coming in.

JiveTalk (AIM App) still having problems logging in.

Seems like it was down around 3 hours.

Here is the best way to retrieve all your stored email messages.

- Power Down your BlackBerry
- Remove the Battery for a few seconds
- re-insert battery and turn on
- All your emails should be retrieved.
