There are those who want HD no matter what, but I am not sure that the public internet is quite ready to provide this much bandwidth. Yet.

The transition to full screen was incredible. Not sure though about having to download the plugin - is that something that the average user (read - my mother) will want to do?</p> Wow – that’s really impressive.

You do have to install a browser plug-in, but it does not require restarting the browser to work. That’s good.

Full screen HD video is a very nice experience.

I’ve got a few issues:

  1. You can’t scrub ahead
  2. In full screen mode my cursor disappeared

Thanks,
–Steve
