What a week!
Any users of Research In Motion’s Blackberry smart phones will surely relate to the title of this week’s piece; an outage that started off in Europe before spreading to Africa, the Middle East and North America (on and off) left many unable to access Blackberry services. MTN Rwanda was no exception and social networks could not have gauged the bitter taste in people’s mouth’s any better! But for all the animosity RIM is receiving for this outage, maybe Blackberry owners should look on the bright side: given the amount of sensitive business information you send on your emails, one can say with conviction that Blackberry is a safe bet.
