What I mean is, nobody has used one yet.

The features may be "well documented" but all anyone on here (apart from a few VM bods maybe) has done is read about them.

Remember when Sky+ first came out, "you can record a whole series at a press of a button", "record live TV", sounded all very good, but when you actually used it for the first time, wow, TV was never going to be the same again. I couldn't imagine living with Sky + box.

Now compared to a Sky+ box, a tivo is just quite simply in a different arena.

It's like any new technology, it will be expensive for the first few "must have first" tech heads, but the price will come down eventually. But if you want it now, for bragging rights, you'll have pay top dollar.

I've seen it, and I was well impressed, simple funtions like the thumbs up, thumbs down button are great.

My only criticism is the design of the box, looks a bit cheap/plastic.
