Interesting, the past few days Blackberrys have had a bad time with many of their services out. Still after several days they don't have it all working. Today Apple launched its ICloud service ( I say today because it took hours to get the stuff downloaded). It failed in a very nasty way in that mail sometime vanished, sometimes appeared then vanished and often there was a user and/or password incorrect message plus dome rather obcyre additional error messages.

It was frustrating to me in that I kept looking for what I had dome wrong. Finally in confusion I pinged IP and found out I was not alone.

What of the non technical user -- the house=person, the grandmother who believed Apple would get ut right. 

Wjem wo;; they learn to stress test their products. Why don't they admit what happened?
