Wow, that EA SCS forum is slower than Simtropolis for me on dialup.

There is an interesting post there, however. They call it an "update", but it sounds like a patch is waiting. Hard to really tell, cuz it could just be an additional download with new buildings & might even be a forum registration bonus.

I just called Gamestop here in San Diego & they claim they will receive the game tomorrow on Wednesday.

Mind doing a little bit of speedtesting on mine Tinkerbell? It's sorta hard for me to gauge on dial up atm due to um...yea...

Your forum is a bit slower than TM's, ManagerJosh, but still waaaay faster than Simtropolis & the new EA Forum. No worries, mate ~ ignoring the download time for your zillion x billion resolution images. :D
