    Not too sure I like the idea of having the Home Screen appearing everytime I turn the box on.

    Your not the only one, can be dismissed with back/exit, times out after 5 minutes.

    I was looking forward to this update, but now I'm not so sure - the Home screen being displayed on boot is a deeply stupid idea. Any way to stop my box installing this?

    Are the other changes worth upgrading for? Have they improved the UI speed, or is it still sluggish, and does it still require 3 or 4 button clicks to bring up favourite channels?

    +1 for the idea of starting on the home screen, that really is stupid and annoying - I hope that FreeSat see the error of their ways and reverse that requirement.

    Rest of the fixes sounds good though!!

    Nice to see the time displayed with the i-Banner (mini guide). Although not integrated into the banner, which suggests a half-hearted approach to a decent GUI.
    Booting into the Home screen is just a nuisance. It's been stated that this was a Freesat demanded requirement, if so then they need to get themselves a decent GUI designer who preferably actually uses the box.
    Delete all episodes is a welcome time saver.
    EPG still as sluggish as ever. Guide Navigation Improvements... what, where?
    No change to Favourites (should be relabeled Useless).
    I hope there is lots more to come in the future. Although I fear that the s/w on this box started out so bad that it might never be fixed short of a complete redesign/rewrite.

    No idea when it will be fixed, but it is being investigated by all parties.

    Will update members when I get more info.
