Woke up this morning to what feels like Christmas. Watching Discovery right now; already checked out Animal Planet, Science, and MHD. All looks good so far. Only one (currently anyway) in SD upconvert is Versus.
Next... activate the hard drive! 
Darn, I am not going to get any work done today.

I can only watch them on the SlingBox, but I am eager to see how the new channels look. Also, did the VOOM chanels go MPEG-4, 1440x1080i, last night?
