There are issues with US users trying to access European sites.
I've rolled out a couple of websites recently for UK organisations with a US customer base. In both instances the sites were hosted in Europe and ,in both instances, a very small number of US customers complained that they couldn't see or interact with the sites.
The most probable cause (please note the word probable here) is the caching used by certain US ISP's. If you're US based and having trouble accessing a site hosted outside the US, try refreshing the browser with Ctrl+F5 (IE6 only). If that fails, complain to your ISP. You're paying for external connectivity to the Internet, not internal access to their caching boxes.
P5 isn't that bad, however, I have to agree with Veritas777's general comments re: E-On's no show at Siggraph, Vue's lousy OpenGL support and Daz's forthcoming software. Spot on, mate!
Cheers,
Mark
