“So by your logic, if consumer’s disappointment over Apple’s outage is a signal of success than is the outcry over RIM’s outage a sign of even greater success? lol”

It depends on the companies trajectory. Many used RIM so the outage (much longer) was felt but when a company is fading and the problem is not from a new feature that thousands are jumping on board for with their hard earned dollars then it’s not good. With apple it shows how popular just this one feature is on the iPhone 4S. On the surface what you wrote seem to have some logic but if you give it some thought…which more people should start doing.

Is so, then issues like this should be expected.
