had mine for a few months now and to be honest i can't see what all the fuss is about HD

i got it for the pause record feature... love it but i would say skys box is prob better.

i don't suffer from the slow turn on as i never turn the fucker off just put it on standby

love the on demand though and the 50meg broadband.... my kids couldn't live without it 10 megs on wireless rocks and they rule their steam accounts
