BlackBerry Service Resumes After North America


For those of you CrackBerry users here in the US, we found out the scoop on yesterdays outage:

A network breakdown disrupted BlackBerry e-mail service for about 8 million North American customers yesterday, the biggest failure for Research In Motion Inc. in 10 months.

All U.S. carriers were affected, according to AT&T Inc. and Verizon Wireless, the two-largest mobile-phone companies. AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel said at 6:45 p.m. New York time that service had been restored.

Research In Motion has about 12 million subscribers worldwide, including Wall Street bankers, members of the U.S. Congress and President George W. Bush. The disruption may prompt executives in charge of information-technology budgets to consider competitors' services, said Avi Greengart, an analyst at market researcher Current Analysis Inc. in Washington.
