one thing that is obvious at the moment is that TiVo has been developed for a US market which is apparent with the lack of the red button which the US dont have and and some of the sofware seems very US based, but saying that VM have done a good job to hide the majority of it.
TiVo has a big following in the US but is a generic product over there here VM needed to take that generic product, brand and market it for their company as an exclusive product. its been done well and once the red button is added (both Sky, BBC and other channels) and the other little niggles are ironed out, VM with have an awesome exclusive product that no other company can come close to offering.
after having my TiVo a few days i understand VM TiVo as their future as its unique and nothing else out there in the UK is even close to what it offers.
