My experience with the sh2 is that it is a significant improvement with regard to wireless performance and stability. Hardware life and failure rates are still to be determined of course.

Reduced support costs would have been part of the spec and probably helped get some better hardware than would have been considered otherwise. VM would have learnt this lesson from the original hub.
An isp supplied router is never going to be as good as a decent router at this moment in time, it just has to be good enough to do the job, easy to support and use, reliable and give less reasons for support calls.
Lets hope the sh2 doesnt have wireless dropout issues.
