Apparently there is another BlackBerry Outage that is affecting Verizon and T-Mobile customers. Reports state that the outage began sometime yesterday and are still widespread. So my question to you is: Is the outage affecting you and how long have you been dealing with the outage? Also, does the recently frequent BlackBerry outage change the way you feel about your beloved BlackBerry? Let us know in the comments!
I have to hand it to this guy. Although this is not directly BlackBerry related it does deal with a major factor regarding BlackBerry devices, Wireless Carriers! YouTube user "parawing742" posted a funny and clever video parodying those AT&T/Verizon map commercials. Check out the reactions he receives as he visits his local AT&T and Verizon Wireless stores and his local mall. Enjoy the video. -Joe
The good people at @theiexplorers and @bbhybrids have extracted and made available via OTA and Desktop install versions the BlackBerry Twitter app. These are leaked versions of the Official beta app so keep in mind you use them at your own risk and always backup your device before installing any leaked or beta app. Also I recommend a battery pull after install.
OtterBox is in the business of protecting devices and if you are like me you rely on your BlackBerry Smartphone, which in turn means your device goes with you everywhere. Why wouldn’t you protect your BlackBerry like you would protect anything else thats important to you? That’s where OtterBox comes in. OtterBox offers affordable solutions to protect your BlackBerry Smartphone. I personally purchased the Commuter Series Case for my 9700 and I must say that I am extremely pleased with my purchase. Below is some info directly from the OtterBox website for the Commuter Series Case:
"The OtterBox Commuter™ Series case for the BlackBerry® Bold™ 9700 offers the best of both worlds; incorporating elements from the rugged Defender™ Series line with the silicone, skin-like Impact™ Series line to create a slick case designed with your style in mind. It’s protection without the bulk. The exposed silicone corners dissipate impact away from the device for additional bump and shock protection and the smooth outer layer allows the case to easily slide into your pocket or purse. All buttons are fully functional through the case and the audio jack and charge port are accessible through silicone plugs."

The OtterBox Commuter Case for the BlackBerry Bold 9700 is available from OtterBox.com for $34.95. However I purchased my OtterBox Case from a little known web store called TheCellGuru.com for about $20 + shipping.
