Still bad request. I am sure their servers are going crazy this morning.

I've received the second email with the download link, and it's still timing out.
Someone should tell WotC about bit torrent and the wonders of distributed downloads. ;D

Mine has been timing out or giving an error 400 since 7:30 am eastern. So, I got it via a twitter share from @chaoticdm t.co/AbeRbfpP

Anyone got it directly from Wizards yet? I am sure that most have found it elsewhere.

I got mine elsewhere because of the Wizards lag.

I've been trying off and on for about 12 hours now and still no luck....
I REALLY want to get the files on the up-n-up, but they're making it difficult!!

I'm going to wait until the frenzy dies down and then get the packet officially. In the meantime I'm going to read the one I have gotten.
Not that it'll get me much karma since I'll be breaking the 'don't play online' rule in the ToS.

I got it officially. It only took a couple hours I just had to wait for the browser a bit...but it eventually went through. I've done a quick once over on everything but the adventure. Seems pretty good as a light read. I'll throw up my thoughts after I get more of a chance to go over it.

I followed the DropBox link last night and read through just about evwery thing this morning - I got the official download about half an hour ago.
So far I am very much liking what I have read!
I like the minimalist approach to Backgrounds and Themes they are showing, it stays close to the concept that the adventurers are young adults in a medieval society and not full grown adults walking away from a lifetime in a trade/career. One of my issues with 4e has been that PCs are complete bad asses at level 1 and that seems to have been toned back extensively! And the new take on healing makes much more sense to me.
I'm liking the B/X/1e feel of the characters.

I finally got the packet legitimately last night (though I did receive a copy from a listener -- and several other offers).
I'm saving my angst about the whole process for the show tonight...
