Research in Motion still doesn&#39;t know why its&#160;BlackBerry service went down for several hours&#160;on Monday.&quot;RIM is continuing to investigate the exact cause&quot; of the outage, the company said in a statement Tuesday. Late Monday, it apologized for any inconvenience caused by the incident, which left customers throughout North America without current e-mail for about three hours starting around 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time.It was the second major outage in less than a year for the popular mobile data service, on which about 12 million subscribers depended at the beginning of last December. The&#160;previous problem, which occurred last April, was caused by a minor software upgrade that went awry, followed by a failed switchover to a backup system, according to RIM. The company said soon afterward that it had identified &quot;certain aspects of its testing, monitoring and recovery processes that will be enhanced&quot; as a result of the failure.BlackBerry e-mail traverses a complex infrastructure involving mobile operator networks, RIM&#39;s network operations center, and BlackBerry Enterprise Servers within companies that use the service. It pushes messages from enterprise e-mail systems, including Microsoft Exchange and IBM Lotus Notes, out to the popular BlackBerry devices.The system is getting yet more complicated as RIM adds third-party services to appeal to consumers, said Albert Lin, an analyst at investment bank Sooner Cap. As the company tries to keep up with rapid growth in its subscribers -- last year&#39;s fiscal third quarter saw a net gain of 1.65 million -- these types of glitches are to be expected, Lin said.&quot;It&#39;s hard to really expect any major service provider to be 100 percent reliable,&quot; Lin said. Although enterprises now have more push e-mail alternatives than they did when the BlackBerry debuted in 1999, those competitors, such as Visto and Motorola&#39;s Good Technology system, aren&#39;t significantly more dependable, he said.&quot;When it comes to reliable push e-mail ... it&#39;s still hard to find a solution that works better than BlackBerry,&quot; Lin said.
