I think this explains why the Black Sony reader with the HP coupon has disappeared from the websites selling it.
eBay started in 1995 and steadily grew in users and listings. I started using it in 1999. Four years later they were still having outages where snipe bidders missed out on bidding at the last second and sellers were stuck having to sell items at really low bids.
I was whining too when I found out I couldn't get the ebooks in the next few days but I too would rather have it done right than mucked up and tick off a whole bunch of fans with a half-assed effort that was crashing on the hour. I would find that far more annoying.
