Research in Motion NASDAQ:RIMM Blackberry Research in Motion Ltd.'s (NASDAQ: RIMM)'s Blackberry is giving users in New York and Washington a "blackberry data connection refused" error when they try to access their e-mails. I can only imagine the frustration that this endorphin drip cut-off is causing those seeking money and power in these cities.

If you are experiencing this problem now, please comment below and let us know what's happening and what you are trying to do about it. Perhaps the exposure will encourage RIMM to get to the bottom of the problem faster.

My Blackberry 7100i just went out yesterday and the error on the screen was JUM error 102 then reset. I was told that my phone was dead and all the information in it was gone. I was and still am furious. I barely had the phone a year. i was told to take it to a phone repair center.
