Your carrier is normally the reason for the local outages you might have experienced. RIM has had, I think two significant BIS outages, last April and last month. There was one other major BES outage, I believe. While they are quite inconvenient, very much so, I think you are exaggerating and/or recreating a different version of those two outages.

Sure it is annoying. But my car, my home electrical, my cable, AND my wife have had longer outages than RIM itself.
I remember in late 2005, early 2006 when I worked for Rogers Blackberry support, there was something going that lasted a couple days where people's BIS accounts weren't polling and they couldn't get into the web client. It caused us to get lots of calls and it was an issue with the RIM Relay server. I don't remember exactly how long it was but that's just one example.
