Whilst I'm in the 'reminders aren't needed on tivo' camp, they were important on V+. It had 3 tuners, but only 2 recorded. Therefore, reminders served an important function for the third tuner.
In my view, if all the tuners in a PVR record (whatever number of tuners there are), setting record, negates the need for Reminders.
It may be, that as people get used to using record rather than reminders, they may come to a point where they don't miss reminders?
Two tivos insatalled today; Two installers came and one did one, and one did the other. took about an hour in total, but a good chunk of that was waiting for it to download information.
Still playing and working things out ATM but so far very pleased.
