A disaster!

Surely this is just the wrong way to launch an online store - they've seen what Apple has done and other competitors - but like RIM and the Storm they rushed it to market without proper testing.

This is inexcusable in this day and age. Maybe they thought that their customer base will just be happy to take this kind of launch - here in the States the site is virtually inaccessible - either because it just doesn't work or worse because of carrier restrictions.

What has happened to proper testing and such?
