Data Outage Just a reminder to everyone that the  previously scheduled and postponed BlackBerry outage has been rescheduled for tonight.

Courtesy of our friends at DataOutages.com:

RIM Scheduled Outage March 29, 2008

Time: Normally scheduled window (2a - 6a EDT)

Details: 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.

For more details on the outage, click here. Unlike the last "planned" outage, I'm going to try and sleep through this one.

RIM really needs to start informing the end user (me :)) of these outages in advance via email.

Is there any means of learning about these outages, or confirming the existence of unintended outages, other than stumbling across them here? I'm aware of dataoutages.com and will give it a try. :)

thanks
