Nawww...they're just overwhelmed with work.  There are 32 million people 
in California and more than half (almost 2/3 now) have either licenses or 
ID card processed by the DMV.  I think the 90 days they told you is a 
little long, but was said so that you wouldn't be bugging them too soon.  
Expect about 45-60 days.
