Insofar as the third party data is concerned SP1 is definitely stable.

I'm a beta tester and have been running this for quite some time.
The ASCII/METASTOCK/.... facility is very good -- at least as
good as TS2000i.

Not real-time but still good.  All the other aspects of the TS8.1 data
management is OUTSTANDING.  It is fantastic that I can assign
any symbol (including the continuous contract symbols that Bob mentioned)
and with a very small delay have whatever data I need to do my
analyses.

I hope (as promised) there will be a longer period of tick/volume data
but right now I'm happy.
