Testing it now for you guys. Tried the modern warfare II thing, episode 3. It shows and it starts playing. But it is choppy and audio is interrupted and the device has a 100% load. Both using the default HD as the SD (did not seem to make much of a difference?). Guess we'll have to wait for GPU accelerated decoding for that one.
Trying some other media formats they have now.
------------update
Seemingly, not able to get anything to play. Is everything on there flash now? They used to have quicktime and windows media too? :S

If you're planning to watch flash videos, good luck with that. I wouldn't count on it until at least flashplayer 10 is released. Recently they decided to go all flash and along with that they implemented a clunky flash player that even brings down my desktop to its knees. All videos play slowly on my desktop (2.0 ghz amd athlon 64 dual core + ati radeon 4670hd) unless I put them in full screen view, helping somewhat. HD Videos are out of the question and sd videos I expect them to play slow.

Interestingly enough their new flash player is playing better than their old one 
Much better at least on my Linux desktop with 64bit Flash.

You can still download videos in these two formats if you click the "download" link under the video. You can try that out and see how well HD videos play on the device itself using the built in video player.
