I’m in Michigan…I just recieved my replacement Storm…phone activated fine but can’t register w/ BlackBerry….called VZW’s support line and found out BB network is down for them, so I can’t have my service books sent…don’t know if the rep was giving me a line…I also went to BB’s site and resent my service books, it said it sent but I didn’t recieve them…hmmmm…….

Boy Genius must have something again Verizon because everytime there is a RIM outage, they label it as a BB Verizon outage. From the looks of the comments it seems that pretty much all carriers had some issues with their BB’s. Be objective and not subjective

Blackberry Pearl 8130 cool here in Indy via VZW.

YO JMack… never try the support reps at any wireless carrier… you’ll quickly learn that you now more than them. All when you can find far better support everywhere online!

Yes, I live out here on the West Coast in British Columbia, and my Mail was down for almost the entire Sunday. I am getting a little concerned with all these RIM outages of late, and am beginning to question the reliability of the RIM Servers.

Outage notification I received from Sprint indicates issue with provisioning and Blackberry Admin site. That issue was fixed in 48 minutes per a follow up notification.
