I think it raises serious questions about RIM's DR strategy if a DB corruption

Apparently Telcos are faced with implementing the following algorithm
to create value-added services:
- Take service S with provides value Y
- Artificially remove value, creating new service V
- Price V at the same level as S
- Offer old S at a higher price point and market it as a value added
