This is one of those statements that are true ... but very
misleading.
I, and others, have rarely had any trouble downloading quotes.
And when we fail to get current quotes in one download, we get
them not long later.
As you have said: Intuit has acknowledged a problem with their
quote downloads and predicted to fix that problem sometime
around August 2008.
In the meantime, folks should refrain from complaining - because
it will serve no purpose - and realize that they can still get
quotes ... if not exactly on their desired schedule.
