:) I don't want to complain about a free service, but I've also just
about given up on the Shipit service. It doesn't really affect me,
since I downloaded and burnt an iso as soon as Hoary was released, but
it does affect my ability to promote Ubuntu in any effective way. By
the time (or if?) I get my Hoary CDs, Breezy will be on the horizon.

I had the same problem with Warty - and as a result, I've still got a
number of Wary CD sets. 

I placed my order as soon as ordering for Hoary was open, but I've yet
to see any disks, even though other people I know have had orders
placed much later than mine. Maybe the shipit site just doesn't like
me...
