Outages Plague AT&T

Outages Plague AT&T

iMobiMac has released software that allows you to use your BlackBerry as a modem for your Mac.

AT&T users experienced data outage Aug. 1,that reportedly affected numerous BlackBerry users nationwide. According to Brad Mays, a spokesperson for AT&T, headquartered in San Antonio, some of AT&T's EDGE (Enhanced Data for Global Evolution) wireless data customers around the country experienced difficulty with the wireless data network for a brief period of time. Voice calling was unaffected, and the company quickly identified the cause of the problem and fixed it. In April, both AT&T and RIM put significant effort into fixing the problem. AT&T made about $50 million worth of improvements to its EDGE network, while RIM addressed a myriad of problems with its caching and backup systems.
