New YouTube video reveals real-life performance of Virgin Media's TiVo

A new TiVo video is up on YouTube, showing a Virgin Media TiVo user selecting various menus and options. For those of you curious about the real-life performance of the box (and the layout of various user interface screens), its an interesting watch:



Thanks to big_dirk at TiVo Community Forums for the video.

  3. Wow. For 250-something quid, I expect it to be near-as instant, espicaly for near-static top level content like the first few menu items shown.
    Will be keeping my money !
