I called from my VZW phone to force that very issue.

Thanks for posting the twitter feed for others. I was about to do so as well as it seems like the only way to stay up to date with this.

I was playing around with Google Sky and while zooming in I found an oddity at: 19h29m44s -27d 35' 23.5" I'm sure its just image/data corruption but it seems odd...It starts to show up at about 1/3 of max zoom level.
