They released it to tame the beast :-)

SP1 does improve performance and stability... I have been using it for quite
a while.

i'm guessing this was meant to be smart.....
but perhaps you didn't understand me... i WAS checking for updates and
the site simply said use your control panel, which I did, and it told
me that it was already up to date.

so when i was asking how to push it, i wanted to know how others were
actually accessing the download.
however, someone else posted a link to the downloads page, which had
the service pack.

so i'm in the middle of installing it now.
however i could not get it through the updates. that's why i was
asking how others were pushing it.

thanks anyways....
