I got a system update today, but never received an email. Nothing changed at Microsoft Connect, so I can't tell if this is the preview or if its just a minor update to the current NXE. Does anyone know how to tell whether I'm running the update preview or not?
 
Can you do the Netflix party thing? I got no update today, so unless you havent been on for a while or something, I'm guessing it's the preview
 
hmm, i was on earlier today, and no update was offered. according to majornelson's twitter, the second wave of updates were sent tonight, but the emails for second waves were sent this morning. Im guessing its the preview, but i'll check to be sure.

EDIT: when i posted this, it was still downloading the update. It just finished updating, and now a new tab named "Xbox Preview" is there. I guess I shouldve waited before coming here :D. delete thread plz
 
I heard it was just minor in terms of the look of the new dashboard. New way that friends look in party, something to do w/ netflix. I forget if there is anything else.
 
I've had it for a few days, not bad. I wasted $4 leftover Microsoft points on the warthog accessory, I probably won't get anything else on the avatar store, but it's still cool. The other features are nice too, and I love the Netflix update, but there isn't a search feature :\
