So, this morning I started my day by grabbing my smartphone (Motorola Q, Verizon Wireless service) and sending a text message to traffic.com to get a traffic report for my morning commute.
No response.
So I figured I'd test another text message by texting 4info to get the latest Dodgers score (already got the Lakers score yesterday evening).
No response.
Wondering if this was a sending problem (although all messages showed on my phone as being sent), I tried originating a message outside of the text messaging system. Specifically, I sent an e-mail from my work e-mail account to my personal e-mail account, knowing that this would automatically generate a Windows Live alert.
No alert received.
As you can see, I wasn't completely cut off from the outside world, since e-mail was still working. But I was cut off from text messaging (and still am, two hours later).
By the way, I solved my traffic issue via the mobile downloadable version of Google Maps. Avoided a potentially nasty problem on my commute.
