Fail. On my first click, "Women"...  The site crashed (Server Error)
(And I'm at work - so bandwidth shouldn't be a problem, but the audio was so choppy, I shut it off instantly)

Second try: "Men" server error again...

Third try: Finally I get in. No offense Stephen, maybe I didn't give it a chance, but where's the innovation?

Don't get me wrong - it does LOOK nice. But...
- The latency on the main nav is poor
- The latency on the secondary nav makes it almost unusable
- Flash intro on the home page that simply fades to black at the end. Above the fold is not a large black field of nothing... - The flip-page magazine view (is there a name for this pattern) has controls that are super-difficult to find

Had to submit this site to the group as I find it pretty interesting. Aside from some navigation probs., I think this site is very cool and demonstrates
an effective and very compelling use of Flash--although it's obviously
geared toward a very young demographic (much younger than me!). I'd be
interested in your reactions--both positive and negative. There are some
innovative ideas in here if nothing else.
