I had an extensive preview of Moxi at CES and talked at length with one of their reps. Unfortunately, even though it's had some work done to in in the past few years, their EPG (Electronic Program guide) is realy cumbersome.
Once you set shows up to record you obviously don't have to surf the guide, but the EPG is what most people find familiar and should be the show-piece of any settop product. It's what gives such products curb-apeal.
Let's not get this comment thread started on Gemstar guide patents or anything.... ;)
