WD TV v2.0 vs. v1.0 Options

[WDUser]

Now that the specs for WDTV v2.0 are up on the site and even the first firmware update (Release 1.01.75 - 11/18/09) is available for the same, can anyone compare the two and tell us what exactly are the changes and new features? The few I know of are:

1) DTS audio support
2) File management capabilities (Copy, Delete)
3) DVD-like menu (Not sure of this one. What does "DVD-like" mean?)
4) Supports HDMI v1.3 whereas WDTV v1.0 only supported HDMI v1.2 (Can someone please tell me the difference between HDMI v1.2 and v1.3?)

Also, might I suggest to the mods that we rename the existing WDTV sub-forum to WDTV (1st Gen.) and create a new sub-forum for the WDTV (2nd Gen.)? That will in turn have its own Firmware sub-section similar to the one for the 1st Gen.

One last thing, the WDTV Live sub-forum is titled WDTV Live HD (WDTV2). Might I suggest we remove that WDTV2 suffix since it's bound to confuse people sooner or later (esp. when a new version of the WDTV Live comes out, 'cos WDTV2 v2 just sounds plain crazy!) Also, if WDTV Live is WDTV2, what does that make the WDTV Mini? WDTV0? WDTV0.5? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

u probbaly already read it but with HDMI 1.3 u can pass through higher bitrates which are necessary for HD sound systems like Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS HD Master.

But i read that WDTV Live only passes through Dolby True HD and Dolby Digital Plus and "only" the DTS core sound but dont know why not also the DTS HD Master sound.
