Oct 18th 2011 at 09:19am by Wayne Tempel
On Monday the Makers of the Blackberry, Research In Motion, announced that they would offer users a handful of free apps. This is to coincide with the outage that users experienced last week.
Initial reports indicate that RIM were having issues with their network, but this hasn’t been confirmed. Although RIM has indicated that there was a hardware problem, and they had no initial backup. There were hundreds of thousands of people around the globe who were affected by this outage, that left them without access to email or the web.
