How fast is your d/l speed. How big is the file, and how long will it take?
Need info so I can extrapolate on how long mine will be

Installed mine earlier today - there is an upgrade required in the Origin application to run the BF3 download. Can't wait till the 25th now.

Done and done. I started off at about 4.2 - 4.4 Mbps, and settled in at about 2.3.
