    After a week of use it kept prompting me to connect a usb device despite having the same flash drive connected that had previously worked. I tried other drives but unit would not acknowledge them. I returned the device to Best Buy.

    The unit took 10 to 15 seconds to change channels and it didn't recognize my external hard drive when I hooked it up. Never recorded anything. Couldn't block channels I didn't want (how many shopping networks do you need?) Remote control very difficult to point PRECISELY at the "eye".

    Would not read USB drive unless it was removed and reinserted. In time, that did not even work. Also, the functionality is not very intuitive. Returned to store. Great concept. Bad product.
