Pre-load from Amazon has commenced

I was hoping to get this started over lunch today but it looks like the Amazon BF3 is broken. You get the 805 KB Battlefield_3_Limited_Edition_Preload_Available_Downloader.exe file which is supposed to start the actual download but I get an error before the download starts. Others on Amazon's forums report the same thing. I guess we need to wait a bit longer for Amazon to get things ironed out.
