F206 introduced a problem where the clock drifts all over the place, rendering the recording abilities unreliable for the most part. This hasn't affected everyone, just some. The speculation it is specific to some locations, perhaps due to PSIP irregularities from broadcasters.
TVGOS is also a sore spot in some locations where less than 100% of the received channels have data. This may be multiple problems. Some of the missing channels appear on other TVGOS devices indicating a problem on the DTVpal. Other missing channels don't appear on other devices either indicating a TVGOS issue - make makes this worse is that support for the TVGOS (from Macrovision) appears to be non-existent.
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.
