I ordered last night (GMT) and received a confirmation email.
Im not able to download yet due to site issues..
But I've waited a year or so for the update... so Im sure I can wait until the website is fixed :-)

Still down here in the US...
 
Seems kinda odd that the Store breaks down during a Launch...

After fighting to get connected to the Cakewalk store - it eventually let me in long enough to buy the X2 -> X3 upgrade. Now I can't get to the download area! I've been wasting time for > 1/2 an hour so I guess I'll have to try again later or tomorrow.
 
So much for the wonderful Amazon cloud...
 
Sigh.

Still down here in the US as well..

Sorry - I didn't notice the other thread.
 
It's weird that it let me in long enough to pay though...

 
I can certainly appreciate your anxiety over not knowing the status of your order... but "dire straits"?  You said you placed your order Sunday morning.  So you've barely waited one day...  You can call CW and/or Paypal in the morning and they will get you sorted out.  Worst case, you have to order a boxed upgrade from a 3rd party dealer. 
 
I'd say the more worrisome part of all this is the fact that CW shop/account servers were mostly down yesterday.  It's now 5:00am the next day on the west coast, and they're still down (At least, I can't log in). 
 
I feel sorry for the CW staff, who experienced (IMO) one of the smoothest upgrade rollouts in Sonar history.... only to have server issues the next day.
 
Dire straits?  They may be yet to come  (I hope not, of course).

I've been trying for about a day now. They got my money. I just can't access my downloads.

Yeah I'm finding this, I started the download at the weekend - got through most of it and there were no problems - but had to leave the rest for today.  I was looking forward to having a play with X3's new features later today but can't get into the My Account page.      Delayed gratification, can't cope with it 
 
 EDIT : OK there's another thread

That's exactly what happened to me. Weird indeed.

What's odd is that I can't even log into my account...
