I've gotten it a few times in the timeframe you noted, but I would describe its appearance as more incidental than constant. As you suggest, I'm sure interest in the iPhone is driving usage above and beyond the normal traffic. For people interested in the iPhone and searching for information about it, I'd have to think MacRumors is showing up high on the search results pages at Google, Yahoo!, etc.

I must be lucky, I haven't seen that message at all over the last couple weeks - I've had no trouble accessing the site. It's probably related, as others have suggested, to higher-than-normal site traffic because of the iPhone - hopefully things will settle down in the coming weeks.

load should be reasonable, there may be an occasional spike.

if you remain logged in, your views are prioritized over guests. so if you've remained logged in over this time, you probably haven't noticed anything.

Almost every time I browse as a guest I get the time out errors. I appreciate that registered users get priority but just thought I'd mention that the servers don't seem to be keeping up quite as well as it seems. I browse as a guest at various times throughout the day so it doesn't even seem to be coinciding with the usual peak hours.
