I got my first BB on Friday. Guess I underestimated the might of my own bad luck. Sorry guys.

This problem has been rearing its head for over 10 days already
- delayed emails
- emails missing
- shoddy browsing
- BBM's not being delivered

No surprise to me that the wheels finally fell off today.

I can honestly say today has been the first really problematic day I've experienced for quite some time.

Sounds hectic...

I'm glad I'm not a RIM techie... poor guys' probably getting flak from damagement.

& it probably was a critical server which died...
