i too have a 1.5mb connection i didn't think there was anyone else like that these days, i was better at my parents house in 2007 xD .. now i live on the top floor (21st) of a 55year old building which hasn't had phoneline changes since they were installed.. goooooo slow download!!

in all seriousness i cannot see them allowing you to download the patch untill it has been fully implemented.. i am no code expert but i wouldn't have thought there was a way to do it before it was completed
