I do not miss the mini TV screen on NTL because I tend to plan my viewing (using digiguide) when I am not watching a program, not during one. The 7 day EPG on Sky plus enables me to set recordings for whilst I am away with series links enabling recordings during a lengthy holiday. I can also watch the programs that I want to at a time of my convenience in full broadcast quality.

I have only had to reboot the Sky+ box once in the year that I have had it.

What gets me about many electrical items these days is the lack of an on/off switch that is accessable at the front. You usually have to go scrambling about pulling power cords out or trying to get at the wall socket hidden deep behind the box.
