Are we going to have a thread for 8300HDC or is it going to be under 8300HD topic? It would be a shame if it is being discussed under same topic because even though this box is supposed to be superior to HD, I find it far inferior, with interface being slower, buggy, cartoonish.
Why did they have to change the interface/firmware? The older one was much more responsive and faster, this one feels like CABLEVISION's firmware.
I am seriously thinking about calling my local office and asking if I can get an 8300HD instead of this joke. I had to return my old one because the hard drive went bad and I started missing a lot of channels. I would have been happier with a HDD swap and firmware upgrade on the same unit.
This is not PowerTV / Aptiva, is it?
