The Prime EPG has gone live overnight!!!

I've just reprogrammed everything on the Tivo so I can now figure out what I've recorded!!!

You might need to go in to network and manually connect to Tivo for it to show up.

Just have RXV - Waited a few minutes for it to load up. The EPG is still telling me to contact Prime. I guess I have been patient for the few months since I got the TiVo, So I can wait.

Mine showed that until I hovered over an entry in the guide.

Our TiVo just had a spasm blinking the synopsis for breakfast about 10 times. Looked at the EPG, was disappointed for about 5 seconds while the old EPG was still there. I got excited because the EPG switched over to Prime's EPG, but then I got dissapointed again because Home Shopping is on!

It took a while for it to 'kick in' but eventually the epg came up. The Tivo would now have to be one of my best buys ever.

Ditto, very happy with mine. No reason to choose another freeview box when tivo is $299.

My only criticism was the remote and the positioning of the select button. Solved that by buying a Tivo Glo remote while in the US - this is a really worthwhile upgrade. $20 USD from Best Buy!

Good on Prime/SKY (and previously Maori) for finally coming to the party. Those $299 TiVo's look like really great value now. Bet ya NL and Bonds are happy.

Now I think we should all email Prime and thank them. It sure will make life easier than the hit and miss I get now....

They were even better at $199 during the boxing day specials.
