Not too impressed so far, Blizzard...

I snagged a copy of World of Warcraft on the way home from work and just finished installing it and having it get the latest patches. I go the Blizzard page to create my account, enter my authentication key on the second page, hit "Continue" and...

...a page from the server listing a bevy Java errors. Thought it might be a Firefox thing (no reason for that, but hey), so I tried in IE. Same thing.

Nice job, Blizzard! I know there's issues with the game servers being laggy for gameplay, but errors in creating an account? C'mon - there should be no connection there whatsoever.

Maybe I'm overreacting, but if you run into a piece of software this early - before you even have a chance to use it - that really leaves a bad taste in the mouths of your customers.

Hopefully it'll be working tomorrow. In the meantime, off to Blizzard with a screenshot...
