I realize this isn't the right forum for this, so, does anyone have a Blackberry list that has discussions much like what we do here? Even better, that might have information or alerts for when there are issues?
I'm seeing an issue right now where phones from two independant providers have not recieved updates from two independant BES servers since 2:30 PM CST (that's now about 2 1/2 hours).
For what it's worth, RIM has indicated that there is a large and "critical" BlackBerry outage in the Americas:
