Bad Timing for Blackberry Failure

The past three days have marked troubled times for Research in Motion Blackberry services. Millions of frustrated users were not getting the messages and creating a large backload of data. This backload is now being processed and delivered.
This is a bad time, especially as apple will debut their new iPhone 4S in retail stores this friday. This little slip up in the Blackberry system, could cause even more customers to make the essential switch to the iPhone. Bad timing indeed.
