Yesterday on SKY news they were saying it should be sorted within 48hrs -I only have a very basic Nokia so the problem has not hit me -I believe millions all over the world are being hit though.

Re: blackberry internet still down

I am sorry but I do find this quite funny.
I did not realise that so many services or users relied on this one data centre.

Have you lost your internet as well or just BBM and email?
Is your twitter and facebook down on your phone as well?

I don't really use instant messaging much but when I do its MSN.
Email is windows live but I have gmail as well
I use Tweetdeck on my phone but could just use the twitter app or web version.
Facebook is by app or web
My internet is either three mobile or my wifi and everything works on either.

All different services provided by different systems, I cant believe Blackberry are so reliant on these servers to work.

Another nail in the coffin for them

Re: blackberry internet still down

Work phone is a Blackberry, so I am not getting emails.
Just like when we are in Sub Sahara Africa.
Good job I can use the PC instead, not interested in Blackberryr Messaging, BBM.
and of course the Iphone is working perfectly

So how does internet on a Blackberry work then?

I assumed it was through your mobile provider except for BBM and email.

Does all Blackberry internet traffic go through this dodgy datacentre?

Why would they do that?

So does internet traffic go through your mobile provider and you have some mb in your contract ir do you pay Blackberry for the internet traffic?

I am a bit confused by it.
