I've recently had my STB changed from a Pace to a Samsung and I must say that so far there has been a marked improvement. The EPG is nearly always up to date, accessing programme guide and other menus is fast and reliable (a liberating experience after using a Pace box for so many years), and interactive actually works. I have only had to reboot the box once in about a month due to everything freezing up whereas with the Pace rebooting was a daily occurence. The only slight issue I have found thus far is that lip synching can occasionally be out but other than that full marks for the Samsung
