Steph,


Yeah, I have Sprint, and all of a sudden everything is slow... I have to actually hit refresh to get my emails, even though they are set to "push". Then again, with what I have been reading on this site, there has been alot of suspicious things going on for the past week. Email servers were down last night for 4 hours according to MiDishago, and alot of users have had iCloud, iTunes, and facetime issues. Seems that there rumors going around that apple was only prepared for the sale of 5.5million phones in presale, but are now scrambling to update and replace existing servers to handle the payload of the new user base coming up.

When using iMessage, routinely when sending a message, sending times out. [YES - Wifi is on and connected and cellular data is off]] Between Apple tech and I we have discovered turning on cellular for 1 message clears the issue.


I go through this routine numerous times a week.


Though Apple advertises, and their techs insists, iMessage works on devices which have NO cellular contract and thus, no connection/service, I have obvious proof other.


Has anyone else experienced same/similar?
