From ZM news this morning, Microsoft is officially launching MCE systems in NZ today... sounds great! BUT shame we wont be able to use EPG feature on MCE.... is there anyway to get to the EPG? Perhaps someone have the access to the broadcasting programmes? or a program that can read from Teletext and output as XML? or access to sky's programme guide and read and automatically output it into XML? mmmm

That's good - but you were able to purchase Winows MCE PCs since last year. I am sure they worked to have the MCE and EPG by now (I know there was a person testing this at Microsoft NZ), but if EPG is not making it...

That's a shame.

It's official again! :-)

Incidentally, MCE Rollup2 is also available now. Check Windows/Microsoft Updates soon. MSDN members can access MSDN site for the update. (news from neowin.net)

And don't forget to also install the Rollup to Rollup 2 .... was a bit of a mess the rollup 2 release.
