Don't be so dramatic. Comcast's interface is fine. Unlike Cablevision's interface here in CT, the menus move quickly and allow you to get to things really quickly once you learn your way around]]>Oct 13th 2006 12:53PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 13th 2006 1:35PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 13th 2006 12:52PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 13th 2006 12:57PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/
Don't be too sure of that, unless the Microsoft software has gotten much worse since June. I moved from Seattle to Los Angeles then. The Comcast system here was already using the above-mentioned software, and Time-Warner has continued to use it since their takeover of the local Comcast systems. Although each has its pros and cons, I think that overall the Microsoft guide software was much better. Plus the stuff down here has some of the same problems that the Microsoft system had, such as the periodic control lockout so that an attempt to rewind 60 seconds turns into a 30 minute rewind by the time the box reacts to the attempts to stop.]]>Oct 14th 2006 6:22PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 16th 2006 4:50PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 13th 2006 1:09PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/

Tivo proponents... you'd really be crying if you went from ReplayTV to Comcast. :) (Does Tivo have commercial skip, or at least 30-second skip?)]]>Oct 13th 2006 10:52PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 14th 2006 12:13AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Nov 1st 2006 10:30PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 14th 2006 2:40AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 14th 2006 4:52AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 14th 2006 4:58PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/13/comcast-updates-digital-set-top-boxes/Oct 15th 2006 1:21PM
