Don't worry about a shutdown, in the event hell freezes over, there is always money and RIM has plenty, just doesn't want to waste it. For me, a personal user, I would rather go without for a month than jump ship. Yes, I can't get my email at work or on the road, which I love, but I can get them online, so it really wouldn't be that bad for me. Maybe I might have to actually start talking to people again, now that is scary
