I really don't have any news.  I have received a SPOT message each day.

They are alive!!!  As I have said I can't really pinpoint their location.  It looks to me like they are on Dismal Creek Road getting close to Pearisburg, Virginia, which is 630 miles into the trip.  The pacing schedule has them at Pearisburg on 05/09/12.  As of Friday they were one day off schedule.  Amy talked to Branden today.  He said a severe thunderstorm sent them seeking shelter.  I have received 3 boxes of "unnecessary" items in the past few days.  The winter gear is slowly but surely returning.  Hopefully they will be able to move to the lightweight summer gear soon.  Although backpacking is harder in hot weather.
