Apparently they're not accepting more applicants, or so says Major's site.

For those who signed up... the update should apply next time you turn on your 360.

I'm so excited to have ESPN 3 on my TV instead of my small Macbook computer screen.

Just downloaded it.

Everything is snapper, faster. ESPN is really cool, watched the first word from Around the Horn from yesterday.

I think I'll watch a bit of the Dbacks and Giants game tonight on it to see how good the quality is.

I'm checking that out right now. It looks like it's about a minute behind, comparing it with ESPN on my TV.

Pretty Good quality though, not as good as ESPN HD, but it's a stream so I wouldn't expect that.

So when does this come out for those that didn't get it early?

This is such an awesome update. The ESPN addition is a very nice addition for this cable cutter.

No official date yet, but it will be at the latest when Kinect comes out (first week of November).

ESPN3 is awesome. Picture is HD. I'm pretty surprised at how good the picture quality is.

I never spent much time using ESPN3 because I don't like sitting in front of my computer to watch sports, but there's a ton of content on there - MLB, College Football, MLS, Premier League, Serie A, etc. I can see myself using this a ton. The on-demand feature is cool too.

The rest of the update seems pretty nice too. Dashboard seems to move faster (less lag). The picture also seems cleaner to me (higher resolution), but maybe I'm seeing things.

Good update.

Still much better than stadard def though.

ESPN3 equal total awesomeness. Only thing missing is mma fights from around the world. They improved the search function on netflix too.

I'm loving ESPN3! It has a lot more content than I remember from using it on my computer.

Pretty underwhelming for me besides the speed of the dashboard, but then again, I don't have ESPN 3. I can only get highlights from shows when I go to ESPN so it was a big waste for me having to give up party chat, especially with 2K11 and COD right around the corner.

No offense, then why did you sign up when you knew the big get was ESPN3?
