i miss not being able to navigate the buffer - with V+ you have to watch everything backwards/rewind before watching it forward - how VHS is that?
i miss not being able to record/save anything from the 'recorded' buffer (Can you beleive that? - i know you wont but just try it)
i miss not being able to browse thru menus without dumping the whole buffer (no rewind)
i miss not being able to switch channels without dumping the whole buffer (no rewind)
i miss not being able to search the EPG by name or genre
i miss not being able to dump a recording at high speed to DVD
i gotta say V+ is great improvment on VHS (or DVD-R) - but if you ever had a proper PVR before, it stinks
