Watching it on CNN, those guys earned their salary this month for sure! And what will their beers taste good tonight.

It is now more then 50 minutes since it ditched and it's still afloat.
Just out of interest, some questions for the A320 guys:

-does it have a ditching pushbutton (as a A330 has, closing outflow valves and vents etc)?
-what's the powersource after a double flameout, emer gen or battery?
