Thanks for the info I've been trying to find out all day! Last I heard they only had around 16000 apps.

A friend did his application Sunday night around 9:30 and it was around number 18500. Apparentlythey had a few left but the whirlwind law was unclear on whether or not they could sell the restso they just ended it with all who applied on time.
