What about the Philips 708? Guide is so slow!
Yes, the 704 & 708's are essentially the same unit. 704 has 40 GIG hard drive, or 35 hours and the 708 has an 80 GIG hard drive, or 70 hours of recording time. Otherwise I beleive they are identical.
I have 3 708's and they were only installed a week ago.
Have you tried the Tivo guide instead of the grid guide? That works well for me but the Grid guide is patehtically slow, even though it looks nice. The Tivo guide has it's good points too once you get used to it.
This update is suppose to help that speed issue, let's hope it does.
