I pre-ordered a Fictionwise book (because of the 100% micropay rebate) which is supposed to be available on November 11. I happen to be up right now and it's past midnight, so technically, November 11. It is showing up in my Bookshelf, but when I try to download it, it says 'error connecting to the secure eReader server.' I tried downloading another secure eReader book and it was fine. So, is the error related to the book being due for release 'today' and not being ready yet? If so, how long should I wait before I can actually download the title? I have never done an e-book pre-order before. This was a new experiment for me.
