Heh -- I rather like the current "pack as much information in as possible
while still being visible from far away" grid, though.. The cable box's
guide that helped prompt development of all this only shows 7 or 8 channels
for a single half hour time period -- useless, really. Stuff like a preview
video playing of the channel's really only good if you're browsing what's
currently on, anyway.
