David,

Hahaha - that's very funny.  The web site was completely swamped when the
service kit was released.  It had nothing to do with the OZ/US link.  I
was able to get good download speeds from the US at the same time that I
couldn't get much more than a K per minuted from www.microsoft.com

They were just caught with their pants down :)
