It seems pretty likely that it's just all the new consoles being turned on
today... you would think they would've been prepared for that... I wonder if
they sold a lot more than they expected to.

I have been working on this all morning! The Sony status page reported the
system was operational however, it has been a no go since around 6:30 MST this
morning. My take is that the denial of service is simply so many new customers
logging on at the same time Christmas morning that the servers could not take
the load. This is simply a case of poor planning on the part of Sony and
costly for the rest of us working the problem Christmas morning.
