    Tried with two different product and it has a problem with a wifi network. When it is working, I like it but the other time, it cannot find Tablo within the same network. I had to reset/reboot/ power off/ on for several times. I like it has a signal booster and it works well with some weak signal stations in area. As far as Schedule is concerned, I didn't have any serious issue except some stations program was inaccurate. I have been updated firmware and apps before making final review . I will wait for next version.

    so many glitches. blank icons for recordings. channel guide does not display which are going to record. worse channel sensitivity than old tablo. some recordings will not fast forward--listed as currently live. some recordings not lip synched. some recorded icons cannot be selected. keep your original tablo or find one for sale

    Probably okay for iPhone, but a lot more development is needed for Android users. Was happy with the old Tablo version, but bought this to avoid the monthly subscription. Maybe someday it will be usable for Android, but I'm going back to using the old one. - won't format a drive if partially used - only way to find content is byscrolling through the huge(24 hours x 14 day) Live table(except maybe for series) - doesn't even *allow* recording if more than 2 days in the future - no searches by name, stars, channel, sport, team, etc

    Worthless! Issues with small green screen just about from the start. Customer service is unresponsive. Gets fixed one day and is back to being worthless the next day. I have requested a refund from manufacturer several times but was told NO. Why does it work some of the times and not others? The additional channels they claim you get are nothing but shopping channels and news. Not Best Buy's problem - it's the manufacturer's issues not worked out before marketing. Would never buy again NOR recommend!
