You will find that the problems with Apple are not confined to the Olympus E1- I ordered a Nikon 5200 from the same site online, for £89.95, on 29th December and my order was cancelled on 4th January at 08.43hrs. As the camera was still showing on the Apple UK site, I rang Apple to order another at 11.26 hrs (nearly 3 hours after my original order was cancelled). My order was accepted, I was assured that it would be shipped on 5th Jan and my CC was debited. I received an 'Acknowledgement of Order' e-mail and then a 'Confirmation of Order' e-mail. My second order was then cancelled at 15.32hrs. I await further developements.

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
