I did manage to check out a book from Philadelphia today, but it was extremely slow - I would click a button and go do something else for a while. My best guess is that it took at least 30 minutes from the time I initially clicked on the link on the Overdrive search site (that took me to the specific book page on the Philadelphia site) until I had the book checked out and downloaded to ADE. In the interest of full disclosure I will admit that I'm still on a dial-up system, but that whole process would normally take 2-3 minutes at most - generally less. I also tried to log in to 2 other libraries, one was just as slow, and the other I never did manage to log in.
