So that's what happened

I had noticed my blackberry said it was on a "GRS" network rather than the usual "GPRS", now I know why.

(it was a lowercase gprs btw)

I dont completely understand why people are making such a hugh deal of this. Okay, there was an outage. It was from sunday 8 to monday 8. Mostly during a Sunday night. I have a BB and thought it was pretty inpressive how it was only down for that little. When i had a sidekick the data service went out for 4 days. Now that is ridiculous. I understand it is not the best thing for businesses not to have BB's working, but im sure if they were working it would of no affected most of the people in that time frame anways. Outages happen, if email is that big of a deal shouldnt you also have a laptop to do it?
