Its about having to live with an EPG where its quicker to get the radio times than use it notwithstanding the functionality issues.

Okay, yes, I was being a little glib. What I should have said was, 1.5 million or so people use software which is the same in terms of which button does what on the mini-guide and so forth. The Telewest favourites system is a bit different, and they only have one day's worth of listings in their TV guide, but anyway...
The point I was trying to make is that a great many people use equivelent software every day without any bother at all. It's all about what you're used to. To me, CR3 seems very simple to use; press TV wherever you are to get back to fullscreen viewing, and when it's fullscreen, press TV to bring up the miniguide. Press i, or Browse on old Langley remotes, to see a synopsis for whatever programme you have highlighted in whatever menu you're in. If there are no menus onscreen, it brings up the programme you're currently watching. I can't for the life of me see how that's a difficult to use system, or how it's confusing, but there you go.
Anyway, I'm kind of curious now. Imagine that your guide gathered data as it should, and that the speed is adequate, and so forth. Imagine CR3 is working as it should, basically. Now, aside for the fact you can't scroll up and down the channel list in 100s (which would be a bit odd with the new favourites system, and wouldn't really work with the goal of consistancy across all menus), what exactly is wrong with the fundemental design of it?
