From the caps here http://forum.australian-media.com.au/index.php?s=&showtopic=99&view=findpost&p=98967
and other information leaking out it looks like the relaunch is not far off. The Sky News Business Channel has had vizrt since it's inception but SNA have been using a very old gfx program for some time now.

The current countdown: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bh4EjLlf0mU

They've been using software they got in 1996 and they updated it in 2006!

"Bookending" both ends of the ticker is a bit of waste of widescreen space. Assuming it's broadcast in widescreen, the channel must look somewhat squished (to use a technical term!)

No, still no widescreen despite the fact that the rest of the country has been since around 2002 now.
