Looks like most BlackBerry users in Canada and the United States are currently without e-mail service. From what I have read it appears all service providers are affected by this outage: Rogers, AT&T, Verizon, etc.
Are you experiencing no e-mail service or delays receiving messages, leave a comment below.

The above image is a mock up of the actual device based on “first hand impression”.
