What I mean is......
Press guide, after a delay it opens go into any other menu and at best there is a slight pause at worse you have to wait upto 10-15 seconds for it to catch up. Annoying when you are used to an instant service.
I also used a Sky + box at a friends which was much quicker. If this is normal then i will have to consider cancelling the box and finding another solution because it's very painfull.
If it's a hardware issue then I recommend improving your boxes as many people will be annoyed like me. Especially as competitors are better and even independants provide better hardware. I could also build a media pc for peanuts that would outclass the V+ box.
