A number of users are reporting and an escalated RIM tech support call has confirmed data issues affecting WiFi devices NOT connected to a WiFi network.
The outage is sporadic and issues are confirmed on at least on Verizon and T-Mobile on both US east and west coasts.
Again, if you are connected to WiFi, you likely won’t notice any problems until you are out of WiFi range.
This is not affecting ALL WiFi users, the reports are sporadic, but across all carriers, BIS and BES included.

I’m on hour 28 without T-Mobile network e-mail and internet access on a Bold 9700. WiFi works fine, but nothing coming or going from either EDGE or 3G. Rockville/Bethesda, Maryland area. This is getting ridiculous.

100% connection via Wi-Fi incl BBM.
