"in-menu advertising is utterly lame"
If you're offended by Domino's advertising in...
It's functionally good, reasonably easy to set up and operate. Netflix on demand is cool.
I'm floored by the in-menu advertising. Do you want to [a] watch this show, [b] delete this show, [c] order Domino's [R] Pizza. Yes it's that bad. Customer service says you can't disable the inline advertising, even though it's a paid service.

Ok, bottom line- the price is what will kill ...
love the interface, love netflix, love you-tube, love the little bloo-bloop noises.

"TIVO HD HITS HOME"
TIVO is worth it. Just say NO to boredom with...
The menu's and user interface are really good. Good set-up tech support and nice value added features with portals to Netflix and Amazon. We are setting up for digital images on my TV screen, etc.
The user interface and screen transitions are sluggish. The remote needs redesigning but works ok.
