Meanwhile, I've had around 8 months of vastly increased functionality.

And Reminders being 'core' functionality on a PVR where all (3) tuners record, is wrong in my view. A nice extra; maybe, but not core; not if the PVR is being used as intended.
Completely right. Being up front about things like red button from the start meant everyone was able to make an informed choice.

However, there are some things that Virgin had the opportunity to put right in the last update, and they got some of those things wrong. That's different.
