From the BBC Website:
>O2 UK data network suffers outage
Not here it didn't.
>The data network gets huge traffic due to iPhone usage
What the heck has the i-phone got to do with it ?
It's a crap phone and besides if you have any sense you'd get a
Nokia E90 instead. It's for men - not girlies.
>Network operator O2's data network has experienced an outage
>across the UK.
>Internet and multimedia message services have been disrupted
>for all of the firm's >customers who are on monthly contracts.

>O2 is not releasing the cause of the outage but says that its
>engineers are aware of the cause of the problem and are working
> to correct it.
Two weeks ago my company landlines suffered crossed lines and frequent
disconnects plus a few other oddities.

Across Kent users were getting the same problems and BT were blaming
new software at their exchanges.
[Must be that Big Brother spy stuff ?]
