New Dashboard-update coming in August. Here is the new stuff, that will probably be in it:
- Games on Demand for the first 30 classic titles like Mass Effect, Oblivion, Assassins Creed
- 1080p instant download
- Zune marketplace
- Avatar marketplace
- Twitter / Facebook
- Last.FM
I am looking forward to this. Xbox Live is getting better and better.

1080p instant download, huh? MS has been to the future and brought back the ability to instantly download 1080p videos and games. This is amazing...MS hasn't just won the console war, they've won the future.
The moment this goes live, Bill Gates will be appointed Supreme Emperor of the planet Earth.

Have doubts huh? I think everyone does. It will be instant for everyone, but I am sure the quality will be based on internet connection. 1080p will most likely only stream for the best of the best. Netflix HD streams quite quickly and error free for me, but it isn't 1080p, so we shall see.

Fine print probably says that they are streaming it to you instantly...what your internet connection is doing to recieve it instantly is not their concern. If they can somehow do 1080p fora 1 Mbit connection the service will rock. If you need 3-5 Mbits like usual, then it will suck for some people.
A lot of people in Canada have High speed internet "lite" which taps out at around 1.5 Mbits.
