4) MUCH slicker presentation of red button facilities.
5) Despite what some have said SD channels are just as good (or as bad lol) as they ever were BUT if anything the HD channels are a bit more HD-eyer than on the V+ box.

Only a couple of downsides. No reminder features - but I know that's coming (does anyone know when it's likely to appear???)

Bit weird not having the channel number displayed on the box...but that's a minor minor thing.

Slightly annoying the recording buffers have to be set up for each individual recording and not across the board in one go or am I missing something????

Maybe bcos I'm not used to it yet but there seems to be a lot of steps to get into watch/delete/set up recording than there was on the V+ BUT I'm guessing that's because you can do more.

All in all I like it. Impressed with the speed especially.
enjoy your tivo would not swap mine for anything
