If it wasn't for the free install offer, I'd be tempted to cancel and wait a few months for things to (hopefully) settle down. The last thing I want is to have loads of programmes not recording or ruined through random reboots.

Maybe VM's free install offer wasn't just pure generosity, after all. Perhaps they knew such issues were likely to arise and without the offer the sign up rates for TiVo would significantly drop off once these problems became public.
All new technology has problems , you only have to look at the Freeview HD PVR's that were launched about a year ago ie 3View,Digital stream and even Humax. They all had problems and some still do.
That is why I have stayed away from TiVo, I will give it a year to sort its self out.
