Similar to you mate its pretty stable , you were right about that indexing issue going from entertainment to HD/3D displays All channels for a brief moment. There is also an issue when going up channels , put the box on say 106 Sky One HD hit the channel up button to say 111 Dave HD when arriving at channel 111 you'll see a brief second of one channel up from we're you started ie Sky Living HD 107.

Yes I believe they are a personal preference I actually like them so have left them on.

Having looked around the web the pictures don't do it any justice , the guide is now pin sharp and has a far more modern feel to it.

It's very similar to the current Sky+HD guide most customers have however it's now HD with richer colours and different fonts with a few added extras here and there like the ability to view your planner by genre , 8 rows of channels instead of 6.
