Talking Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3

No My Shows button - you press the Tivo button twice, instead. The coloured buttons are different but the functions are in the same place, so red button services are on the first button from the left, in this case the yellow button. Yellow functions are on the red button. Green and blue are reversed, too, but the functions are also in the same positions. Keypad works in the new You Tube app but not in the old one. Also, symbols don't seem to be recognised but that may be due to lack of support in the app. The remote is backlit and overall I'm very pleased with it - a definite improvement on the supplied remote.
Was thinking about looking when next in the states but I dont think I will given the use this instead of that . I use the remote with out looking at it for the most part. Life it to short to "train myself" to do all that as well

O lord what will I do then. All kidding aside. Full red button & reminders are all I was ever looking for on the Tivo. As I said many times before things there I have no use for, but all in all it that will make as good as I think it can get. There I have said it.
