    I think I just learned something about the BB "Internet" web browser..

    Why on earth would it require that the BES/BIS server is up? My BB is on BES, and I can't connect to jack any more. App World can't download anything, and the browser can't go to any page.

    The question that comes to mind is WHY? If the BB is connecting to the Internet At Large, then it should go through just fine. Indeed, tethering still works. My impression is that the net is still reachable (TCP/IP, etc), but the BB web server doesn't go directly to web sites.. it must go to the BIS server instead.

    That's just lame. Where do I get a Real web browser? One that makes a bona-fide TCP/IP connection to the web server I requested, and doesn't use the BB servers at all?

    Try Bolt at boltbrowser.com. Pretty sure it does direct IP and it is a decent browser with a couple of quirks.

    Ok I see there are people like myself that are still having problems. If I do a battery pull or resend service books will that help at all or do we just sit and wait? thanks

    The data issues with RIM continue. Opera Mini seems to work fine but RIM needs to find the fix for this.

    I'm in Maryland, near Washington, D.C., and have still been having problems since last night.

    Web pages will load, but it's off an on. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Facebook alerts come through, but I can never load the new item. It always just sits on loading, then times out.

    SMS/BBM still work fine.

    Email has been coming through, but with a lot of delays.

    I have did a battery pull, resent service books, and dialed *22899 more times than I can count. I am really at the end of my rope with this stupid Storm.

    FB, Myspace, Gmail, even Blackberry App World times out for me. I can, very rarely, get my FB app to load, but it's extremely rare. My browser will eventually load but it does take forever. I'm in Tennessee and using AT&T. A lot of my friends have BB's on Sprints network and they're seeing the same issues. Do they know when this will be back up?

    Internet is still spotty, mostly down. Any 3rd party apps related to internet also down: Social scope, fb news feed, Bim Active,...

    (of course emails, bbm, fb alerts work.. they are data, not internet based)

    this is just lame. It's been over 12 hours.

    Very sporadic data services beginning last night about 5 PM MDT and carrying over into today. Accessing some applications that require a connection to a data server causes my BB Curve 8330 with Sprint to reboot. I'm located in the Denver, CO area.

    On Sprint's Tour and in the Los Angeles area, for things that does work: SMS, E-mails, opera mini, bb browser, ubertwitter, bbm (though if I'm typing to someone that is having problems, there's always that chance), google maps, sprint navigation and iheartradio. Things that don't work: Sprint TV, possibly MMS (not sure, haven't tried and no one has sent me anything)

    Yeah apps + browser for me. According to VZW RIM still has a response team working on the browser issue. We shall see.
