    Is Pottermore a decent source of entertainment? I have a beta account that I just haven't gotten around to using, and spring break is coming up.

    Sure it is. It will entertain you for one whole hour.

    But for 46 EUR a set? :O_O:

    What the fucking fuck. Talk about making money. She's doing this without publisher, isn't she?

    Gah. This annoys me. I wanted to buy the books, but not for almost 50 bucks. Make it half that amount and we can talk. Maybe it'll get better if the Euro starts to rise against the pound :|

    Does anyone know if Pottermore is actually going to open to the public? It's the 13th, and there are still no signs that website is actually going to open...as far as I know.

    It says early April, but gives nothing else. I've been checking it every day for the last week or so, but nothing changes. So I'd expect it to be any day now, or there'll be an announcement saying it's delayed again.

    I expect a notice in a month that there were problems delaying it four weeks ago :|

    I'm beginning to think the same.

    It's a shame that they can't announce what date they are going to open. This is a clear indication of another delay in opening of this site.

    It's already halfway to May, dammit.

    I've been actually checking Pottermore every once in a while - I want a re-sorting, dammit! I made some questionable choices, and I want to re-do it. For some reason, it's been haunting me ;D Didn't care that much about the content, just wanna get sorted properly =p

    Is this website ever going to be open? It should have been officially open on october 31st last year, but here we are, and still nothing happened. There's no explanation, anything, they just keep missing deadlines they set themselves.

    If the site isn't open by the end of the week, they'll miss this deadline too. Very disappointed with this.

    IMO, they've already missed the deadline 1st - 9th: early April, 10th - 19th: mid April, 20th - 30th: late April. It's why I asked to begin with. I was hoping someone knew whether the deadline was going to be pushed back again, or if they were just running a little late.

    Pottermore still isn't open to the public?

    I exhausted all the amusement from that site two days after I got my Beta Invite (when was that, October? Earlier?). Did they ever open up future books or anything for beta?

    Seriously. How hard can building a website be with 12 months and a ridiculous budget?

    Add to that, it has been in Beta for 10 months. Seriously, it must be really hard.
