Delay does NOT seem indefinite :)  It is going to be worth the wait I'm sure.
I got this reply from Yum the other day via email:
Regarding the high-resolution video playback solution, our engineers are trying to make SKYBOX more stable with the solution ON.
So far we have successfully using Quest to display the high-res video and decode the video without distortion. 
I would say we are on the final step before releasing the feature. 
But still I am not able to give a exact ETA at the moment.
