I have a hr20 for a week now, its birth level was FA. I, due to whatever stroke of luck, am finding almost no problems. I daresay no problems after the first couple days of learning curve and 2 or 3 resets.

I am wondering when they come out with their next release of software if I am allowed to decline it. NOT download it, or does it do it automatically. I am a firm beleiver in if it ain't broke, don't fix it, and see no reason (at this point anyway), to change a thing.

In pc software I alwasy look at the list of "new" things, or added features, and if none of it interests me, I don't bother. I wuld like the same choice here. Yah?

Of course I also know, based on what I have read here, that my pristine box could go south at any moment, so am keeping my options open. Stability does not seem to be a keynote of this tuner.

The updates on non-TiVo boxes are mandatory.

Nope all the fun of a new release is shared by all

Oh goody goody! I can hardlywait!
Thx for the replies.

And since you're most likely leasing your HR20 from D*, they have full control of what software is on the box.

Since you are in NorCal you are automatically enrolled in the involuntary west coast beta team for new releases.

BT, make it have OTA and make it go well, will ya? Otherwise it will be late next week before we see it here in the midwest.

I'm sure you guys on the front lines of the beta team have some sort of pull, don't you?

Indeed, is this true? They throw it at us Californians first? Great, so if its a pile of junk we will find out and save the rest of you from it? Well I am glad to take one for the team! What fun.
