Any word on when Microsoft will ship the much-need “Fiji” Media Center update?
No, when I last spoke with the Media Center team, I was told that Microsoft shipped a Media Center update every year around the holiday season and they would try to keep doing that. At the time, SP1 was expected by late 2007, so the delivery schedule made sense. Right now, it’s unclear if the Media Center update will ship out of band by itself to Vista users this year or as part of a set of related updates (like “XP Reloaded” from 2005) later on. What is clear is that it will not ship as part of SP1.
