I have had Q for 2 months now and would NOT go back to TiVo at all. Its just such a classy and great system.
Even being able to stream ALL channels to the Tablet app when I go to bed is a big bonus as well as downloading recordings to the tablet for watching when I leave the house.
The clash thing isn't an issue either as there are so many tuners you'll be lucky to get any clashes at all.

You don't have a box that supports HDR at the moment, regardless of the reasons behind it (which I agree are perfectly reasonable) it doesn't support it at the moment.
My mate works for Sky and he let me have a play with the box (which granted isn't nearly the same as using one all the time). However I'd agree it is a very good PVR, I'm just saying it's not as groundbreaking as Sky are making out (just as the Tivo wasn't as groundbreaking as VM made out). it perfectly reasonable to expect that any imminent PVR will be able to match the SKy Q offerering....although as I said one powered by the current TiVO software is unlikely to be as reliable.
For the record I still don't get the tablet thing, I've downloaded shows to my phone from Amazon for my kids when we're on holiday so maybe something in it but at the moment I'm genuinely not interested in watching anything on a small screen and not in bed....but then I regularly go to sleep listening to hardcore punk and heavy metal so maybe I'm the weird one.
