*VERY* disappointing ... at £700 still having t  twiddle the contrast wheel
is a joke, having t  use a serial port t  shuffle data in and out of an 8Mb
remote when even USB is getting slow - well.

I had kinda assumed that I'd be looking for one of these when it came out
over here but from that review I'm not impressed. Maybe the real thing will
impress me enough?
