I will be asleep. But where did you get this info? I'd be frustrated if this happened while I was awake and didn't know why..

Do you think this will affect the use of my 8830 (Verizon) as a tethered modem (I have the plan)? I'm hoping not, as I'm in rather serious need of it where I'm at tonight.
I will be watching a movie with my girlfriend. She has no idea there is an outage and she'll think I finally put my bb down to spend time with her. ;-)
