Ralph, Nottingham

Score 10.0/10
Good points:
A brilliant product; easy to install and use; small footprint
Bad points:
No on/off switch. In days when we are told not to leave things on standby, we have no option - other than pulling the plug. Okay, the standby wattage is very small - but we are not told if the program retains its data if switched off. It seems to, but for how ,ong?

Good points:
easy to use, loads of features, best set-top box I've ever used. Can't understand why the good features from this box - the EPG, timer, jump button etc - haven't been incorporated in my new Sony TV .
