I hadn't heard they were keeping it off akamai. 

Me neither. Although I had it for a while I downloaded it from the
Microsoft web site again twice today (did not bother to look where it
resolved), from home and office, and it came each time in less than 15
minutes for the full network install file.

I have broadband, and most file downloads arrive at the full 512K. A week ago the SP2 install took over an hour, though, and when I checked the url again yesterday it started arriving at around 120kbps.
