Yep, my iPhone just went down, and I can't call any Optus numbers, and their website times out for me too.
Interesting.

It's effecting all the Webcentral websites if you're connected through Optus... so you might be able to connect to Google, but not cricket.com.au or essendonfc.com.au (both of which rely on webcentral for their hosting).
Which means I can't do bugger all work this morning!
