I think Old Boy is talking about the latter definition of Electronic Programme Guide.

And looking at the screenshots of the new EPG section, it looks like most EPGs.

The bit about the new OS that worries me is the interface that leads to the EPG section. I don't want lots of bit graphical, screenspace wasting buttons, but quite a few people do and it's the current trend.
That's correct. I have always viewed the EPG as the channel listings. The screen before that is the Home screen.

As I understand it, the new Home screen will be picture based, and you will select the appropriate picture to access the programme guide, which will probably be exactly the same as the one we have now.

The other pictures on the home screen will allow you to access on demand, recordings, apps, etc.
