Can I ask a quick question please?

How responsive is the TV Guide on the TVDrive? I had Tivo a year or so ago and loved the fact that it's guide downloaded overnight so that its operation was instantaneous. Also, does the TVDrive have any search functionality like Tivo? ie, rather than browsing for the pgm you want to record, can you do a search dor say, "Prison Break" and it will list all upcoming episodes and what channels they appear on? Can you ask it to record anything that stars "Kate Beckinsale" or any pgm containing "Star" in the title? Just wondering if it's Tivo lite or just a variant on the cumbersome NTL Guide we have on our set-top-box.

Thanks.
