I'm not sure at the moment, usually we get heads up from Earl, but not this week it appears.
It was found out so late that I was surprised when I got an email from them this late !
No idea yet, but I d/l them anyways, I have all along so I may as well this one too
Thanks jtn, Stuart Sweet

Important notes regarding this version
This is the second version of this very aggressive CE cycle.
And with that, there is a SIGNIFICANTLY increased level of risk involved with this fversion.
MediaShare is getting some significant updates this cycle, so right now... there is the possibility that using some of the new mediashare features could freeze/lockup the unit.
There is LITTLE risk that your box will become a brick... and if you are having to many issues, role back to the national release version.
So please... you must absolutely understand these risks, before forcing this download

I haven't found any issues with it, yet. How do you get the 30 second skip to work? I know about using the keyword search, but after that, I am lost!
When you do the "30SKIP" keyword search it switches to that. Nothing else required. Search on "30SLIP" to go back.
This release seems quite stable. I haven't done anything with the video media player stuff, but the overall unit runs smooth and I love the 30skip option.
I am still finding a bit of audio skip when I use the slip/skip, back or to catch up, I guess it's may only be when catching up to real time.

So far good for me. I havent tested the playing video files with this version yet. I was having problems with the previous one which wouldnt fast forward a video file.
