Release for vista will be +/- Feb '07
It will feature MCE functions in a few editions... there are *SEVEN* editions though, so when the time comes, choose well.

vista windows media center edition
is not called vista it is just called windows media center edition 2006
once this comes out all 2005 plugins should work in this version
but you must have a 3 ghz processor and 1 gigs worth of memory just to run vista so windows media center edition may be the same way
