At frist, there were frequent still locks requiring re-setting (that happend a lot last fall, too) but that has stopped happening, and also now I can see some enhancement in 1.6. (I have only a 256M hard drive, cable high speed). So you might want to try again. There is a huge variation in the picture quality from one game to another, for reasons I cannot speculate on, but I noticed in the out-of-market cable games a few years ago, sometimes a game would come in with very bad quality picture.
I subscribed to premium as well. I tried the 1.2M and had problems with it immediately and never tried it again. I unistalled whatever it was I had to install to use the 1.2M. 800k is good enough for me. I'll likely give it a try again but I'm in no rush to cough of the $20. Have you tried hooking it up to your TV? Didn't work for me. I need to look into it further.
