Had one of my SA V+ boxes changed today was faulty really noisy and kept rebooting. Replaced with a Samsung so I'm happy now then other SA V+ box will to replaced with TIVO when I get mine.

I asked VM engineer about the TIVO boxes he told me to wait 6 months before getting one cause of teething problems etc. But said it will all be updated via software updates, not a new box or whatever. So I think i'll get one near launch, going on that. Just have to put up with a few teething problems, I've put up with the SA V+ boxes so I should be ok.

He's got a TIVO box said it's rubbish at the moment loads of problems, stopping recording programmes couple of minutes before they end, turning channels over on it's own etc. He said he didn't do why they just didn't keep the current boxes and just put bigger HDDs in them.
