R61 HFA01 was available to CSPs for only a few weeks before it became available to us lowly customers. That's the fastest I've ever heard of it happening. I've seen others take a few months.

I really do not understand the reason for this. Is it to use CSPs as a wider beta audience? It could help non-CSP customers because a defective update might get fixed before we get it, but that seems to be a nebulous reason at best.

The companies paying the support contract invoices are the real customers of Check Point, not their channel partners.
