It is set for the 17th, this Tuesday. I've just pledge cause I know I'll be here that day.

I set the date in my computer calendar for it at 3PM. Just three more days! I can't wait.
 
I'm running RC3 right now, everything is very promising.
 
Does anyone know what time they are going by for launch?

Edit: 7am Pacific Time...
 
What time is that in GMT?

*edit*

Looks like 5pm. :(
 
Pledged, although I was hoping to d/l it too. :grumpy:
 
So its not available yet? :banghead: :mad:
 
Still no word on when it's hitting? I mean it's was 9:30 on the west coast already.
 
According to my clock it is 09:25 pacific time, so we'll have it in 35mins. :)
 
Seems like they release on a timezone basis.
 
Ah, 20 more minutes!
 
A few more minutes here.... (posting from Firefox 3.0rc, BTW)
 
Well, their website seems to be down...
 
Well, they brought that onto themselves, didn't they? :sly:
 
Looks like mozilla.com is having some issues right now. Can't imagine why. The IBM Server Cluster commercial comes to mind. :)
 
Well the name of the page appears in its tab but nothing else appears. :lol:

Edit: It still says download FF2...

Edit2: Haha...

 
Well, back to work I guess....., that was very anti-climatic.
 
I'll be damned if they're trying to break a world record when the current one is larger than their capacity will allow.
 
Obviously, everybody has been waiting for this and now they're just pulling the servers down. We got 24 hours though, so I guess we'll have more luck later on.
 
It's only going to get worse, Australia is going to wake up in a few hours, and shortly after that so is Japan and China. They better hurry up and get this fixed.
 
Brilliant! :lol:
 
Did they not even think of preparing their servers for this?
 
:lol: So much for that record, better luck next year? :dopey:
 
I think this is what they call an EPIC FAIL these days.

That said I'm downloading at 13 KB/sec :nervous:

Odd, it downloaded within 15 seconds for me a minute ago.

Browser looks pretty good so far. :)
 
Suddenly it downloaded at 450k/b :D

Installing now.

*edit*

Edited with Firefox 3.

This is gonna take some getting used to.
 
getfirefox is up now. Yay. Averaging my standard download speed... about 100k.
 
Downloading on the work computer at 250kbps....and it's done. Going to install.
