It's not so much that it was poorly written software, more like they took software that wasn't specifically written for the hardware and just added patches here there and everywhere so they could rush the item to market, remember the third tuner didn't work on launch.
Once you launched the device with all these workarounds there isn't really any going back, all you do is try to write better patches.
