It was pretty wide spread enough that they pulled it for quite a while. I remember the PS forums were littered with dead PS3s.
Yeah, they probably should have pushed it back till they got it done.... Oh wait, they already did that, how many times?
Upcoming Home content shown at London media day - Joystiq I hope most of that content comes sooner rather than later, it sucks that they just released a barebones service, the games are fun for a bit but other then playing them and chatting there isnt a lot to do yet, still it has potential. almost every female avatar is surrounded by a bunch of guys YouTube - The Art of the Quincy
It was just to ambitious and too tough to apply well in reality. Remember the episode of the Simpsons where Homer designed the car that had everything and ruined his rich twin brother's business? It's like that in a way.
it's funny because i had a friend come over and create her own avatar. so many guys talked to her and sent her friend invites, etc. it's weird how they all flocked to her and were so desperate. she kept making them dance and do stupid things.
So you have to spend actual money on everything, including something as little as a night stand? LOL, why not wait until The Sims 3..
I am not really defending Home but The Sims 3 would cost money where Home is free which would be one reason not to wait. The big thing is though that the talk is that PS Trophies will earn you money to spend in Home so that real money is just for the hardcore Home freak who has to have everything without getting Trophies to earn it. So money isn't really an issue either.

The new HOME patch removed Voice Chat (I'm happy about that) and added Beards. http://kotaku.com/5113224/home-beta-gets-beards-loses-voice-with-latest-patch
voice chat is gone? that sucks. i was on monday night and we were doing the running man and somebody played "what is love (baby don't hurt me)" into his headset. buy yeah i agree, in more crowded areas the headset sucks.
