I've been experiencing all the same problems as Kneebs has described. I thought the Samsung replacement (which arrived last week) would be the end of my problems (namely the frequent crashing of the Pace 4000).

Alas, whilst the Samsung hasn't crashed (yet) it performs worse than the Pace did. So i have now done what I should have done a long time ago when I cancelled the digital TV - get the STB swapped for a SACM, which is hopefully coming on Friday.
