Blackberry crisis as millions of users experience a new crash

After the crash a few days ago which saw services in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and now Latin America go down, Blackberry users have complained of experiencing a new crash. RIM had just announced that the services were "operating normally" when a few hours later around 11:00 BST on 10 October, users saw the services disrupted once again not being able to access email, web, or the immensely popular Blackberry Messaging service (BBM). Now users can only text or make calls. The problem believes to have come from a server problem in the core of the RIM Slough data centre. This failure in RIM's system is bad news for Blackberry as it might deter people from buying Blackberries, which are well known for there internet based BBM service.
