I have had mine for around 4 months now. There was a period of getting used to it. I recommend updating the firmware as soon as you get it home - mine worked much better after that. The only downside is that once in a while, I have to reboot (unplug from the wall) the base station because the remote can't find it. Overall, I love it! I would recommend buying one. Be forewarned, this is not exactly for a luddite or a technophobe, you will have to play with it a bit. Read more
