Anyway, yeah, how 'bout that Star Wars timeline, eh?
ESB is quite difficult to time line because as an audiance we don't have a lot of references (other than logic) to come up with a proper time line. Since the Falcon had no hyperspeed that means that they were on thrusters only and that has got to be one long ass trek. They said that they were in a solar system and that Bespin was one of the planets (makes sense since they were in an asteroid field; those don't just apear in random parts of the universe). It takes us months to send probes to Mars, let alone the newest probe sent to Pluto - which will take 9 years to get there.
So the Falcon had to limp it's way to Bespin, and Han said it was far but do-able.
Kershner said that ESB does take place over several months, which is plausable, but it's hard to see because none of the character's clothes change. Okay, Leia escaped with Han and only had the clothes she was wearing, but she should have changed her hair. I mean, I can't stand wearing the same up-do hair style for more than a day. I get those "hair head aches" where your scalp hurts. I blame the director for that one. He could have at least given us some sort of reference that a lot of time was elapsing. Given Luke a bit of a 5 o'clock shadow later in his training, have Leia change her hair style once or twice. Hell, have her take off her coat for once and run around in her tanktop for a few scenes.
And to make things worse, when she get's to bespin she changes, but then after the torture she is back in her same damn snow clothes she's been wearing for 3 months.

well, we don't see the Falcon between their decision to head for bespin and when they get there, Maybe Leia made due with some of Han's clothes, and then changed back into her own to appear presentable on Bespin.
As for Boba Fett, I'm guessing he hyperspaced ahead. I don't believe the falcon would be followed for a month without them finding out.
