I suspect a reminder would have to be treated as a recording, with the extra functionality of switching the channel you're viewing to that channel.

One thing is for sure, if adding reminders makes the tivo act like the V+ with 2 recordable tuners and one non recordable tuner, just to implement reminders, there will be some very angry people.

People moaned about non global padding and look how badly that got implemented, so I'm concerned about how they will implement reminders.

I don't understand why people are so hung up on redundant functionality that has been bettered.
