At the moment the only positives of this box over the V+ is the space.
Too many negatives to list.

I am playing the waiting game on this much talked about autumn update but if that does not fix a good % of what I consider to be issues I will be telling them to shove their 28 day thing and will go back to V+.
They did a very clever PR trick with the why don't you keep your original box for free in another room so they can tell you to order your PPV and red button etc on that.
Not the point at all.

As I have read elsewhere. Who the heck were the initial testers for this thing? All they had to do was give the box to a couple of hundred keen Virgin tv/Tivo enthusiasts all over these forums and they would have realised this would have got the negative reaction that I am seeing all over the place.
