$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('vision-master', 'N')ever heard of "blackberry" service? Is it some kind of cell phone thingy? I hate those contraptions anyhoo.

there's 2 kinds, that i can think of.
a friend showed me his electronic blackberry a few years ago. as a career contraption designer, i thought, well, that's, sort of cool.
i think it will take about 6 months before we know the details of this blackberry outage. in order for complex technical products to work, a lot of stars have to line up. one little piece of entropy, for example a manufacturer saving money on EMI-shielding materials, or not planning for condensing humidity inside an electronic product, and you have, undocumented features.
i needed/wanted to buy a cell phone. i thought it would be $50 a month. $130 at safeway for a phone & 1 year service. amazing !
