1. Does it seem any peppier? The vogue is ok but slightly sluggish.. did you notice the diamond is quicker starting and switching between programs?
2. Screen... I use slingplayer and sprint tv quite a bit.. did the the speed and smoothness/sharpness of the video noticeably improve because of the faster cpu and higher res screen?
3. I use Kinoma play daily.. almost hourly.. I had read that kinoma wasn't optimized for the diamond... not sure what this meant but also read a couple of other similar posts.. anyone have experience with kinoma on diamond?
I would really appreciate feedback on these questions.
thanks

1. yes it is a lot more "peppier". programs run faster, launch faster, less hangups, and overall the build is a lot better. Everything runs smother.
2. i use sling as well, i work for sling media. the new sling player works MUCH better on the diamond, much smoother and the quality is definetly better since its a vga screen, but it also depends on ur upload connection. if u want THE BEST picture, think about the sling box hd.
3.im not too sure about kinoma since i dont use it, but if its not optimized for the diamond, im sure that if works changes can be made to optimize it, and with our great community, help is close by. =)
