if($('#Choice').is(':checked')) {
  //is checked
} else {
  //is not checked
}

or you might even be able to do

if($('#Choice:checked')) {
  //is checked
} else {
  //is not checked
}

Ouch!I've been bitten by this. The value seems to be either true for checked, or "undefined" for false. OK for simple logic as above, but I had a smidgen more logic to process, with the expectation I'd get a false.
