E-mail and calendar items are now being delivered to VCU enterprise Blackberry devices.

Earlier today, Research in Motion (RIM) reported a massive system wide failure of the BlackBerry network in the Western Hemisphere that affected users across the United States late last night.

Service has been restored across the national Blackberry system and network. Mail delivery times should return to normal according to RIM. The Blackberry Support Team is investigating the root cause of the outage and will monitor their network throughout the day.
