I've got vista on my laptop and I'm feeling brave so I'm downloading now. I've got the long weekend to play with it if there are any issues!

Posting this off my now SP1 vista laptop - It worked!
Windows update downloaded 66Mb and it took about 25 mins to install.
No ill effects and no positive effects so far - I haven't noticed any differences at all but will keep you posted.

I ran windows update twice to get it. I think there is an update to download first before it then triggers the SP1 update. Just try manually running windows update, get it to check for updates a few times - reboot - check for updates.Not yet available here.
MS may have something to stop everyone trying to download it at the same time so keep trying.

Thanks for the advice but I tried to no avail.
I believe I have an explanation though: having bought the PC here my Vista is in Italian by default; it is likely that just the English version of SP1 has been released for now.

"According to a Tuesday blog post by Windows Vista product manager Nick White, English, French, Spanish, German, and Japanese are available now, with the additional 31 language versions due in mid-April."

I've installed SP1 on two 32-bit laptops now, with no problems whatsoever.

SP1 in Italian downloaded and installled today in about 40 minutes without any apparent problem.
Has anyone of you who have run it for a couple of months now noted any difference/improvement? :candle:

I have Vista Home Premium on one of the laptops at home...and with SP1, it's definitely connecting to the wireless network faster. Besides that, I haven't seen much improvement. But then again, I don't use that laptop regularly.
