Last time, I waited 2 weeks before updating. It was probably overkill though. I figure a week max, couple of days should be good though as you know some people just can't resist temptation. Then again, there are a scant few who will update just to see what happens and report it, kind of a take one for the team type of thing.

Can't say as I blame him really. Maybe he wants one with the new heatsinks and stuff to help with 3rrod or just that he wants a cool looking Elite model.

I updated mine as well. Xvid and Divx worked like a champ. Not banned yet, but since fixing my RROD system I can risk the ban.

Yep you pretty much hit the nail on the head,Want the bigger hard drive,Falcon board,And the benQ,also on a side note I seen where they have posted news that you can downgrade your kernnal with the timeing attack,if you go ahead in do the update.Just in case that is what your worried about in updateing.

I was at my brothers and he's just updated. The update seems like a step back to me, aside from the divx/xvid stuff which i can already do on my cheap upscale player, also when on the arcade tab it includes 360 game demo's alonside the arcade games and the tab do not remember when it switch back.

Though plus point it seems much much smoother and faster to me now.

I've been waiting to update till i do my drive, would it even matter if i updated before i flash drive? or do drive first then update?
