better video since software upgrade
Last week when I turned on my NC, it started a software download. After the download, I discovered I could play video (YouTube) quite well, where before it was very low resolution. Anyone know about this?

The update added Flash support. So now you can play the video's of the desktop version of Youtube.
Previously you could only play video's of the low resolution mobile version of Youtube.

Video playback is not as good as it should be. There is a problem with the firmware 1.2 video drivers. According to B&N there will a patch to solve this problem in a few weeks time.

glad to hear there's going to be a patch to fix it. I hadn't noticed it before, but now I do.
