Sorry, if this is a newbie level question. First time using Instawallet. Successfully deposited 5 BTC, and then went to transfer to SR account and I get the following:
Account has insufficient funds (or not enough confirmations) to complete this action.
According to Instawallet "your recent transactions do not yet have enough confirmations. Instawallet requires deposits to have at least 3 confirmations before you can withdraw them again. Just waiting for the Bitcoin network to confirm the transactions should resolve this situation."
What does that mean, is this just a timing issue and I need to wait? Thanks.

Instawallet shows you the transferred funds very quickly, but makes you wait to transfer them out till it has enough confirmations from the network. So, it's just a matter of time.
