Comcast DVR not exactly “Comcastic”

I’ve been thinking of upgrading our TV to an HD model. But we are huge fans of Tivo going back to the Series one boxes. We now have a DirecTivo with dual tuners and can’t imagine moving to one of the abominable Comcast DVRs that try to copy the Tivo yet screw up all the fine details. Maybe next Christmas we’ll look at getting the Tivo Series 3 that can record two HD programs, but it needs to come down in price. Fat chance?

I got a laugh reading John Battelle’s experience with the craptastic Comcast DVR. Some of the comments are hilarious as well. This DVR may go down as one of the worst consumer electronic devices to ever see the light of day.
