PSA: Verizon users reporting data outages across the US

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/12/verizon-1324461406.jpgIf you’re having trouble getting a data connection on your Verizon-branded handset this morning, you’re not alone. We’ve been receiving a bevy of tips from disgruntled Verizon customers, due to an apparently widespread outage across the carrier’s mobile data network. Based on what we’re seeing on Verizon’s @vzwsupport Twitter feed and forums (linked below), it looks as if both 3G and 4G networks have been affected. We tested some handsets in the San Francisco area, and can confirm that data connections are indeed down at the moment. We’ve reached out to Verizon for comment, and will let you know as soon as we hear more.
