We TiVod the episodes (I was out of town for a couple of days) and we just watched the first episode last night.
I was surprised to learn that Watson gets the questions as a text file: I would have thought speech recognition has evolved enough to use.
But then I started wondering - how was Watson getting the trigger to know when to push the button? But at least he has to push the same button as the players (albeit, electro-mechanically driven).
And yes, I am changing my view just a little on the show - it is a little more educational than I expected. It can be amusing to see some of the responses that Watson has been coming up with.
