I got the following message when I checked the B&H website:
"Sorry, due to a power outage in our New York City location, our store, web site and phones are currently not available.
All orders will be shipped out on Monday (August 7, 2006), or as soon as power is restored.
Please check back with us later."

They might be closed now for Tisha B'Av, and tonight for Shabbat (Sabbath), but I don't see any other conflicts this weekend after sundown on Saturday (New York time).

b&H had some kind of electrical fire..thats probably why.
Nope. I heard it on the traffic report coming home- it was a manhole explosion that knocked out power around their store. They'll be open as usual tomorrow.

Sounds like something that happens in San Francisco :P
Just a quick follow-up on B&H. I had placed an order last week for a Lightsphere just before their site went down. I ask for and paid for three-day Fedex. They were back up Monday 8-7 and shipped my order via overnight Fedex at no additional charge. Received it today (8-8) before noon.
What really impressed me was they just did it without pointing it out or patting themselves on the back. I'm sure that there are other service-oriented companies around but for now, if B&H has it in stock, they have my order. No need to shop around.

I had quite the opposite experience, I paid for 2 Day shipping and they didn't process the order in time. I called them to cancel the order before it shipped and they basically told me I was sh!t out of luck because they were closing in 30 minutes and didn't have time to cancel my order. I got it 2 weeks later :(
