Very good point.

It would appear minus the leap backwards, maybe this time ntl won't write the software for the boxes in a language it will crawl and won't have technically crap hardware to write for.

Am I right in saying the epg is fetched and stored in the ram each switch on / updated at 01:10 GMT+1? If so, the harddrive would now be used for storing the EPG data? I think thats along the lines of what the new Sky HD box (not sure if Sky+ already does this) is doing; the new box has another 160gb just reserved for Sky's use as it is.
