Chris, it’s loading fine here in the north east. I’m in Boston connected to
Verizon business aka UU Net and Level 3 communications and both paths are
getting to Apple just fine. Remember that Apple uses a distributed
architecture to deliver content as well as Akamai and other content delivery
networks. So there’s no one place that all the connections have to go to
everything is distributed around the world. It might be local to your area or
you might be right and we’re going to get swamped up here as well.
When I was working for TripAdvisor we set up a direct connection from
Apple to our network, that was great for upgrades.
Apple is getting slammed with new phone activations though, that could
also be part of it.
Good luck
