Ah, shucks...
Quoted: Apple suffered extensive network gridlock Friday morning, as many of the six million users of the original iPhone tried to upgrade to new software while the first buyers of the new iPhone 3G were trying to activate their purchases.
Quoted: The setback was a classic example of the problems that can follow when complex systems have single points of failure. In this case, the company appeared to almost invite the problems by having both existing and new iPhone owners try to get through to its systems at the same time.

First of all. Demonoid is back up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Second of all, check out Papers. Basically like an itunes for pdfs (but better because you can search IN the documents) AND if you log in via your libraries proxy you can browse journals and download their pdfs WAY easier. There are a couple versions up on Demonoid if you want to check it out. I am still testing it out.
