""This is an emergency notification regarding the current BlackBerry Infrastructure outage"

Warranted with the critical type of communication (governments, military, financial, etc) any outage can affect. Credit to RIM for not trying to downplay things eh.

Would have been nice if RIM would have notified their Technical Subscribers...

Blackberry Support Services Numbers including (877) 255-2377 for North America are currently DOWN due to the volume of calls...

I'm sure RIM is getting slammed right now, some carriers are actually forwarding their calls directly to RIM!!!!!!

BB browser has been off and on all day today. i think they're (TMO) messing with a tower perhaps? lately at work i get zero service...definately feel the effects of the outage though... have been for a couple days...hoping the browser perks back up once i get home and in a better coverage area...but, only time will tell
