I get it tomorrow afternoon, and I feel like a kid the day before Christmas!

Inside me, I'm bouncing off the walls in anticipation.

2. I love mine, too.
But figuring out how to record two things at once has been a pain in the ass.

Sometimes it works, other time it asks me to stop recording or switch channels. An all out war almost happened in our home a few weeks ago when we lost the last five minute of The Amazing Race. We almost through the box out the window.

But enjoy, it's amazing, and hopefully you're better tech-savvy than our house!

3. I adore mine EXCEPT for one thing......
Sometimes my shows get cut off at the very end. Like if a show runs til 9:01 the DVR will only have recorded 8:30-9

As soon as they fix that glitch it will be the most perfect invention ever

4. You can set programs to record however minutes early and however minutes long.
Just figured that out. When you set a recording, go into the options and you can set a program to record early or late.

6. I can't tell you how many times the remote was thrown down when our
favorite programs we cut off until we found this option.
