Nothing official but I was in the area (San Fernando Valley - Van Nuys)
and had good 3G data but no voice service.  Initially good signal
strength but an intercept stating call could not be completed at this
time, then went to no bars strength and "out of range".  3G data
continued to work throughout.  Timeframe roughly 1530 to 1700 PDT.
Cleared up shortly thereafter or I drove out of the affected area
(northbound 101 towards Ventura).
