This may be dumb question. But are they taking Pandora away with this CE update?

[Iceberg]

doesnt look like it

I'm going to be trying this tonight on my HR-20, can someone explain what this means?:

"If you revert to national, it will be to the blue UI
You will need to enter IAMANEDGECUTTER keyword search if first time STB updated to HD UI"

Thank you

[Iceberg]

Unless you have the current national HD release if you decide to do the 0-2-4-6-8 outside of CE hours (like Sunday afternoon) you'll get the old GUI (the blue one)

I've never done the other keyword thing

[hunters1234]

Thanks Iceberg. Looking forward to trying this tonight at 10:00 my time.

I'm going to try the CE tonight, hopefully I will get back the Channel Logos that I lost from the older CE I had been running, when I downloaded the CE from 12/16. I also didn't get Pandora from the 12/16 CE.
