The actual downtime was only about 20 minutes, ending by 6am Eastern.
I would pull your battery and reboot if all else fails.

Done that several times to no avail.

I'll see later if it is just localized to the cell tower in Brooklyn. My guess is that it is, since I've not had any issues prior to this morning.

Probably localized, because unless the date is wrong, the outage is tomorrow unless I can't read (or at least it's tomorrow in Central time).

It's been here and gone in my neck of the woods.

HELP! Ever since the update my 8830 won't power on/initialize!! Red LED comes on for a few seconds (not blinking) and then goes off ... then it repeats. Happens on both USB connection to laptop and on charger. So thinking I might have a corrupt OS (that's before I read about the update) I tried downloading VZ OS update - of course it won't initialize so that ain't working. WHAT NOW!!!!! ARGHHHH....

The update should not have affected your device as in my understanding it was for the networks/system. I would try updating to the latest OS posted here.
