100% outage 3/22?
 

A post was sent to the Bb-Outage mailing list (-= Dataoutages.com =-) about scheduled maintenance and 100% outage on March 22, 2008. Our wireless provider (VZW) knows nothing about it. I can't find anything official about any "regular maintenance windows" or this particular work.

Anyone?

During the normally scheduled window (2a - 6a EDT)

A full 4 hour outage is scheduled for all BIS & BES users in the
Americas for RIM database maintenance.
Any BES connected to srp.na.blackberry.net is expected to be impacted.
No mail / activations will be possible during this outage.
This is a 100% outage

Yep... may not be completely down, but during that 4 hour window messages may not be delivered.

Confirmed here.
[Bb-Outage] RIM Scheduled Outage March 22, 2008

When I called RIM this morning to confirm the person I spoke with knew nothing about a planned outage and is suppose to be checking into it and calling me back.

I am notiveing that while I still recieve a few e-mails, on a slight delay, I can not use BB Browser successfully for anything.

Also got the outage e-mail.

I hope that whatever they do, they can fix the delays on push mail I see from Gmail, Yahoo and GoDaddy. Its getting worse as time goes on.

Does this mean they're getting ready to release 4.5?

Anyone having issues in the EU with KPN as a carrier? Our BES in teh Netherlands is not able to connect to the RIM network - all attempts to srp.nl\eu.blackberry.net fail. It shows the packets getting out our Firewall but then it never connects.
