PowerDNN Website Was Down For 2 Hours?

Looks like they were upgrading their website and that’s why it was down and not due to technical difficulties with their servers. I really liked the features and reviews over internet and I would continue recommending PowerDNN & 3Essentials to my client and will leave up to them to chose one.
UPDATE: 12:00 PM: Response from Tony V., who is Chief Technology Officer (PowerDNN) 
We actually knew about that issue with our website.  The reason it was down was we were pushing a new version of our website live.  Normally we do this late at night, but because of the long weekend, we figured that nobody else would notice.  Obviously we were wrong.  :D
UPDATE: As of 9:00AM the PowerDNN website is running fine. Overview page now look like below screen shot.

I am greatly shocked to see the PowerDNN website who is specialize in hosting DotNetNuke based websites is facing technical difficulties. As of September 5, 2009 (between 7:00 AM and 8:30 AM) most of the pages on their website are not working and throwing error.
I am wondering what kind of service PowerDNN will able to provide to their customer if their own website were down for more then 2 hours. Following are screen shot of few pages that are throwing error.
Shared Hosting overview page is empty.
