Well, I am glad I finally read this. After trying to get AvantGo to upddate-connect all day and night yesterday, I finally pinged and tracert'd them, and determined something was really wrong on THEIR end, not mine! Didn't know about the planned outage. No big deal for me...I just pull weather and news off it for when I am on the go.
Thanks alot for the post!

Now I'll just wait abit and get the other stuff as I usually do...off TV or newspaper.
