sorry couldnt resist fed up with the kids moaning that they cant use bbm ;D

Weren't RIM asked to suspend BBM by some of the Arab states during 'The Arab Spring' ? If I was into conspiracy theories, I'd think something might be afoot....... ::) ::) :-\ :-X
-
Coincidences? No, too many Arab countries had uprisings in too short a space of time. Black ops?
-
Indeed! I'm not convinced it's a technical issue... :-\

official story is a core switch crashed & fail over failed to take place. Quite possible, but such failure should be fixed fairly quickly.
Also find it quite difficult to believe almost the entire BB traffic is shunted through a single big ass switch :o
-
Knowing how these networks operate its very difficult to beleave that a single switch failure (more likely to be a router actualy) would take the lot out.
Thats either very incompitent network design or a bull! ;D

Ronnie Corbett and Harry Enfield have been there... ;D ;D ;D

I can't believe it is just a switch problem, or they are amazingly incompetent as they should have backup switches and spare hardware for crucial parts of their server system. I would expect an outage of minutes to maybe an hour for such a problem, if all redundant switches had failed, while they changed the hardware. This to me sounds like a repeat of the Sony fiasco where they were very slow to provide information until they knew the extent of the problem and they were very heavily criticized for it. With RIM already struggling against Apple and Android smart phones, could this be the final nail in their coffin as they will have lost their customers trust. :o :D

Dont you mean Blackberry ops !!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

Thats what happens when you buy Gooseberries ;D. Nobody outside of corporates should be using them, as they are a rather poor phone, even poorer smartphone, and reliant on single point of failure systems to work.

All gooseberry EMEA message/internet traffic goes via RIM's Slough datacentre - even if a corporate has it's own BES. Thus a problem there will bring down massive parts of their operation.
Gooseberries work differently to every other phone out there

Only if your on a BB data plan..... ;)

If you've modified the service book.....then the BB browser will work happily with any service provider ;)
