I did get to authenticate it once in the morning, like 11am AEST (australian
time), but after an hour or two, i tried to authenticating office on my other
machines all failed on internet connection. Seems like everyone is hammering
the servers which brought it down, or maintenance. I monitored the packets
and it is getting acknowledged, but else its down.

Same here and very few launches remaining!
This could be a real pain.....I hope that MS fixes this servers issue as
soon as possible.
Cheers from Italy.

I've got the same problem! I have very fast internet broadband, access to
internet is fine, but the same activation problem comes up! Doesn't help that
we can't report the problem to them either, so far I cannot find any support
emails or tel numbers for office 2007! Wish I was one of the lucky testers
who MANAGED to activate their products ( How long do you think it'll be
before we can activate our products? And how do we know anyone is on the case
in sorting out the problem?

I too stand in line waiting to activate, can't believe how many people are
posting about this but no comment from MS.

Well I suppose we should all be appreciative of the public beta.
