EB games here (in Australia) has said at midnight of the 15th we can pick up, install and play. So I hope their right as AUS is +10 GMT and pacific time is -8 GMT so according to my local store I can be playing long before you can. I just hope thats right if not, ill be installed and waiting for kick off.

Super Cop! He knows where you live, he knows where you sleep.
No, they still don't know when servers will go up yet =)
(Don't let anyone say its 12:01 pst as a fact yet (there's a good chance it will be pst) but as of right now the only thing we KNOW, is that the digital copy becomes unlocked at 12:01 pst. Bashiok is still saying they dont know when servers will come online yet. its a very tricky thing for them, as people will be upset either way.)

EB Games is hardly a great source of legitimate information, EB Games also have Diablo 3 sitting in PS3 and Xbox 360 cases and I had one of the staff tell me "Its confirmed and is being released the same time as PC"

Im still hoping for est time!
I'd hope they would release the servers and digital copies at the same time, otherwise going digital with Blizzard would be kinda pointless.
Even if unconfirmed your best bet yet is 12pm PST.
Until I get another time, since I live in EST I plan to do a all nighter the night before then go to sleep at 5pm the 14th and wake up at 3am the 15th ! Won't be disturbed by tiredness this way ^^

Wait you're telling me you're going to be able to sleep the afternoon BEFORE the release day, I call lies!
America: "… it launches at 12:01 a.m. PDT on May 15" Asia: "… it launches at 12:01 a.m. PDT on May 15" Europe: 12:00 a.m. CEST May 15 = 3 p.m. PDT on May 14 -> "With our previous releases we do release them at local times, so for Europe it will be midnight on the 15th, which in theory means that it will be released a few hours before North America gets it. This might change in the future but it will then be updated on our webpage." (by Blizzard)
Taken from the Diablo 3 Countdown widget. However, I'm not sure of it's official source.

My place really was here. I was too foolish and stubborn to notice. But, what I truly hoped for then was here. Why do I always realize it When I've already lost it.

No matter what it will be between 12:01 AM EST and 12:01 AM PST.
So that means between 12:01 am and 3:01 am est
Correct.
I foresee them turning it on at 12:01 EST since it isn't an MMO with racing to world first or anything.
