Can anyone tell me what the new software is like? I have
an MX-850 on order and am VERY dissapointed in the "No
Live Update" software change.
The new software is exactly the same as the old software, it just supports the "Live Update" feature. If you're buying from an authorized dealer, you'll get the updateable software. Live Update with the MX-850 and below will essentially only be for additions to the IR database as there is not much more that can be added (other than hex code entry in the UB). The MX-700/800/850 hardware restricts the addition of any features found in the MX-900 and above.
