Good Points
IR blaster allows me to control my cable box channel - this was my primary reason for choosing it.
Recording happens/continues whether it's on, off, or turned on/off during the recording.
DIVX support is a good bonus - useful for downloaded content.
Bad Points
It would be nice to be able to hide channels you don't need - like shopping channels - to make the channel list smaller.
Setup for Virgin (ex-Telewest) cable was not straightforward, as my cable box is a Scientific Atlanta unit, but the only choice on the list was Pace. By selecting "other" for the cable provider I was able to get it working OK.
