I can't add anything to my cart and pages take an hour to load. Does anybody else have this problem, or is it my connection?

I want to spend my gift certificate!

During the last few days I've had SEVERAL periods when Amz was giving me an error of "sorry this feature is down; please be assured we are working on it."

They're usually pretty fast at repair from what I've seen in recent years (hours or minutes).

Yes, they're having problems. Even an attempt to open their search page:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ats-query-page/

Gives something I've seen too often lately:
"We're sorry!
An error occurred when we tried to process your request. Rest assured, we're already working on the problem and expect to resolve it shortly.
If you were trying to make a purchase, please check Your Account to confirm that the order was placed.

We apologize for the inconvenience."

I've had problems too. Lots of holiday shoppers I'd imagine...
There's a splinter in your eye and it reads "react".
