Regarding the INMARSAT contribution, this is on their website:

Washington Post tracks Inmarsat role in hunt for MH370
[...]
The report added that the handshakes from the satellite – along with assumptions about the plane’s speed – helped Australia and the US National Transportation Safety Board to narrow down the search area to just 3 per cent of the southern corridor on 18 March.
(emphasis added)

It's not clear that what was announced today was anything beyond this?
Of course it does it totally rules out the Northern arc' so they can say with a high degree of certainty all on board are now dead
