Can you get cums, hipers, and group ptfs via ftp?

Thanks,

I've stopped using ECS to order ptf's a long time ago.
1)  If they're downloadable, then iPTF is a #$% of a lot faster than that
modem.
2)  If they weren't then the internet method at least sent you tracking
numbers, etc via email so that you could track either the Airborne or UPS
shipping.
3)  Now, with the ftp option, I haven't yet ran into any that couldn't fit
the FTP site.  And with a T1, etc, to the Internet I can handle the
downloads.

I ordered my CUM, Hiper and group via IPTF on Tuesday and got them
yesterday via
Airborne. The only time I had a problem was when there server was down and
I
keep reordering them, go three sets. I only found out about the problem
because
I sent an email asking what the problem was. It sure would have been nice
to
post something on the web site to tell people.
