Media Share demo or screen shots

I'm considering upgrading to the HD DVR (or switching to another provider so I can use a TIVO). Part of my decision will be based on how the MediaShare functionality works. There are really three parts to the question:

1. I have Vista Home Premium, but not Viiv enabled. From other postings, it sounds like I can still use the HD DVR to play music from the computer as long as Windows Media Player is set up correctly. Is that right?

2. If I can only connect the DVR to my computer via wireless network, will I get the speed I need, or would that be too slow. What would be the minimum requirements for the wireless connection?

3. Where can I see a demo of how MediaShare actually works -- what the screens look like, what options there are, etc? I've only been able to find a brief video on YouTube that doesn't actually tell me anything.

Thanks....
