BlackBerry Phones: Second day of near-global outage


A service outage hit Blackberry phone users on several continents, said Tuesday the manufacturer Research in Motion (RIM). For the second day in a row, "some areas are struggling with problems of email and browser"
Some clients can no longer receive or send e-mail with their phone.
The manufacturer of multifunction phone also assured on his Twitter account, he tried to "restore service as quickly as possible." RIM has not so far specified the extent of the problem.
The major failure is due to the failure of a "core of the network switch," RIM said on Tuesday. "Although the system is designed to redirect traffic to a backup switch, the backup system did not work as in previous test," continued the manufacturer.
This failure had already reached Monday for users in Europe, the Middle East, Africa but also in North America and South America.
