Microsoft's new dashboard (http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/06/microsoft-unveils-live-tv-streaming-for-xbox-360-from-sky-tv-fo/) for the Xbox 360 is close at hand (read our full review (http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/05/xbox-360-dashboard-update-fall-2011-review/) for the details) but not all of the video partners that were announced for the new Kinect-centric experience (http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/05/microsoft-reveals-new-tv-providers-on-xbox-360-in-the-us-and-int/) will be launching alongside it. As of launch December 6th the list will look basically the same as it does now, with Lovefilm and Epix (http://www.engadget.com/tag/epix) joining options like Netflix, Hulu Plus, and Sky Go. Later on in the month more new providers like Crackle, Dailymotion, Rogers On Demand, Vudu, and Verizon FiOS TV (http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/29/verizon-details-live-fios-tv-service-for-xbox-360-kinect-contro/) will filter in, while the UFC app is timed to launch December 20th (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/12/01/ufc-on-xbox-live-delayed-to-dec-20/). Finally, a few highly anticipated additions including MLB.tv, HBO Go (http://www.engadget.com/tag/hbogo) and Comcast's Xfinity On Demand are among those slated for arrival in "early 2012". Check after the break for the complete list (update: and a video trailer), we'll let you know about more specific launch dates as they become available.
