yeah the specs are ok, eg dual tuner + large capacity HD. Tho there's no reason (financially/technically) the spec's should'nt be reasonable given the hardware has had about 5 yrs to mature/drop in cost.
I would'nt think they'd have too much trouble signing up a small flow of customers even if they did have a crippled system and $ pricing structure, thats a sad but true fact I think.
Nothing much stopping them from stagnating for another couple of years with this I reckon, if they wanted to. Just keep the price high (...and the service crap, it's what they're good at, j/k) I doubt they'll do this however... that just can't be good for market share over the long term..
anyway, thankgod for the internet...
