No matter who you are, which carrier you’re on, or which hardware you carry: network outages can find you. More at 11.

Sorry – us cellphone bloggers don’t often get the chance to fearmonger, so I had to pounce on the opportunity. Word on the street is that RIM’s having a bit of an issue with one of their servers. If you’re one of the lucky bunch that happens to have their data routed through this box, things might be a bit off until they give the box a swift kick and get things chuggin’ along again. As the problem appears to be on RIM’s end, issues are not limited to any specific carrier or hardware – it’s all luck of the draw today, folks.
