There have been load problems with SqueezeNetwork recently. A byproduct of Slim's success. ;-)
They are installing more servers to cope with the demand: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19784 Sales must be absolutely exploding. I recall about a month and a half ago that they had spare bandwidth to sell! Sean: I know and can understand that Slim is a privately-held company that is under no obligation to release sales figures, but would we be able to get an idea of sales growth, say in the last few months, or say after the SB3 launch? Maybe just a number-of-digits percentage? It's at least in double-digit percentage growth, if not triple-digit.
