North America BlackBerry Users Suffer Another Outage
Many BlackBerry customers were unable to send or receive messages for several hours earlier today. CNN reports that the outage lasted over eight hours.
At one point, BlackBerry estimated 100 percent of its customers in North America were affected by the outage, according to an e-mail sent to customers.
"BlackBerry subscribers may be unable to send or receive messages. Subscribers may also be unable to register their device, roam in another location, or use other services such as Internet browsing," the e-mail said.
"BlackBerry Internet Service subscribers may be unable to use the BlackBerry Internet Service web site or perform activities such as creating new accounts, integrating third-party email accounts, or viewing email attachments."
This was the second major outage for BlackBerry in less than a week. They have not yet given an explanation for the recent outage. Hopefully, they will figure out the problem and keep it from happening again.
