    I've installed it and the thumbnail movie list is working really well. :)

    It's not entirely problem free though ... initial mounting of disks seems to take much longer now for some people (including me!), and there's a few complaints about subtitling (quality of fonts used) although I can't really comment on that.

    See http://wdtvforum.com

    No difference in mounting my drives but it is a beta release

    Looks much better now! :D

    Judging by the response on the net this pre-release firmware looks like its close to the finished product.

    It's certainly better than 1.02.00 .. video startup is now virtually instantaneous (used to have a delay of several seconds), and scanning my 500GB disk now takes much less time than before.
