Yes, I agree ssam. Don't panic everyone! The reason you can't get Application Manager to work properly is that the download servers are absolutely swamped with everyone downloading the OS update PLUS all of the new versions of their applications.

I was not able to download the OS image today (had to use a mirror) and until about 1 hour ago I could not install ANYTHING from app manager. But now, it is all working -- albeit slowly.

It will get better soon.
