Thanks-I just hung up with a Verizon tech and he had no clue how to fix it! I might as well have called Brittany Spears!

Seems to be OK now, unless someone forgot to tell Long Island that there was supposed to be an outage.

As JSanders mentioned, BBM seems to be going strong. I've been receiving an email here and there, but nowhere close to the amount that were in the actual inboxes when I checked.

On the plus side, the device is able to connect to BIS through email settings now. It wasn't able to when I checked a few hours ago. Baby steps in the right direction are better than no movement at all I suppose.

Could not get through to ATT tech support via phone or via chat. Confirmed with a VZ user and a Rogers Canada user. Last emails received were at approximately 445PM EST -- Does anybody have word on restoration time?

I guess it's one of those good days to be on a BES, no issues there.

Still down in NYC on my BIS (and Gmail integration).
