Can someone quantify what the speed of the V+ box is when it is "slow". I'm currently on the point of deciding to move (not sure if the appropriate word is upgrade or downgrade!) from a TiVo to a V+. One of my main concerns is the talk of slow response to button presses as on the few occasions where I interact with my existing VM STB directly the response is *appalling* - i.e. 5 to 10 secs to respond to each button press! Normally I browse/change channels via the TiVo menu so its not a problem but if V+ is anything approaching this slow then it sounds almost unusable.
