Christmas launch delay

Is this true? Can't the server support the download and purchas in 3-4 days?

Due to this failure, we did not have FTP access or a reliable email service to be in touch with our Beta team. Also the e-commerce was delayed accordingly - it was supposed to be fully set up by yesterday, but as you see, only 30 minutes ago we got control of our DNS. SSM2007 email has not fully propagated yet - it will take at least 12 - 24 hrs and we need it for testing the e-commerce which was delayed for Monday due to the circumstances.

Then we are blessed with holidays etc and you can imagine how much work ANYBODY will do during those days.

We estimate that the delay pushes us towards the weekend after Christmas which is not bad at all considering that we expected to gain domain control only Monday evening.

All in all, this delay is shorter than the real Shuttle although it happens for totally different (and revolting) circumstances.

R&D on the Shuttle has not stopped however, only debugging and we do not intend to launch a product we feel still needs our attention.

We, at the SSM Team hope that this event which was not under our control, will quickly become a thing of the past for all - including for us

Merry Christmas!

Start to feel, what the reel shuttle crews, must be feeling when the launch is postponed for technical reasons; our SSM2007 experience started already and this before the original launch date 
Have a suggestion though; wouldn't it be possible to upload the manual in between; so we can than gear up our hardware like joysticks and it will ease the wait a bit 
Nevertheless, hope the team can take a brake the comming days. Be assured that all the efforts you make are appreciated.

It's a great idea, i'm agree with you. Can they send us the manual after the 25Dec, to prepare to launch the Lift-off day!
