Sorry Hugh, the above is not meant to be offensive, but it's the impression I'm starting to get.
I'm enthusistic about tivo and think it's going to be way bettr than V+ but I refuse to put put blinkers on and pretend it doesn't have things on it that the V+ does better.
I know it's not released yet, but that shouldn't stop people posting their concerns, and accurate guide data is the cornerstone of a PVR.

pb, I wasn't trying to be offensive - if it came across that way, my apologies.
But, there are a number of posters who want it
a) now (if not sooner)
b) perfect
c) do other stuff that no one has thought of
d) just like to have a bitch about one or all of the above
It's only a bit of kit, for heaven's sake - it's hard to believe the amount of emotion and vitriol that is being raised about it.
Back to the point of your reply - I was trying to be light-hearted, but obviously epic failed, by trying to point out that VM isn't making anyone buy/try/trial this, and if some don't want to buy/try/trial this because of what they have read on this and other forums, it means another one is available for those who do, and perhaps don't have such high/critical standards.
btw, there's a huuuuuuuuge difference between accepting that a new piece of kit will have some issues and having blinkers (imho - ymmv).
