Still having BlackBerry issues?

We've been hearing sporadic reports from tipsters today that RIM's BlackBerry back end is buckling yet again; nothing consistent or solidly dead, but enough chatter to warrant concern that these guys seriously need to rethink their failover strategy from the ground up at this point. So who had trouble today, and are you still having issues? Are you looking into alternatives at this point, or is it going to take a lot more heartburn than this to turn you away from your beloved device?

RIM affirms that BlackBerry services are down -- again

Oh noes! BlackBerry addicts everywhere have reason to panic this afternoon, as their beloved network is indeed experiencing technical difficulties -- and it's certainly not the first time that this has happened in the past year. Reportedly, an e-mail sent by RIM support account manager Bryan Simpson affirmed that a "critical severity outage" had taken place. The message went on to say that it was acting as an "emergency notification regarding the current BlackBerry Infrastructure outage," that was (is) affecting enterprise subscribers and "users of the Americas network." So much for that "won't happen again" line, huh?
