Re: new samsung boxes more trouble then they worth?

I'm not convinced that it is better or worse.

The digi TV seems OK and responsive, mostly, but I have had some picture freezes. The lack of phono ports was swiftly dealt with by the installing engineer who provided a scart with phono cable. The STB remote is supposed to be able to control volume, or so the engineer said, but it just gives me the old PACE type message, to use my TVs remote.

The broadband seems appalling. If I'm on the silver service, why does it take 10 seconds to load the average web page Dunno if that is due to P2P (which is throttled right down, and averages only 10mbps up/down,but it dont get much faster when I switch P2P off), if I put the router onto the smasung, it'll crash within a day. But is this the Samsung, or is it a signal fault. I'm just never in at the moment, at the right times of day, to call faults to give them an ear bashing .

Still it's a nice colour and I don't think it's quite so good a room heater.
