My experience with IFLY:

I spent about 10 minutes re-dialing their number as I kept on getting busy signals! Finally, when I got through, I asked the guy if things were busy. He said the phone hasn't stopped ringing.

I guess this is a good sign as demand seems to be huge. However, in the long-run, they will need to accomodate this huge demand...otherwise customers will go elsewhere.
