Not sure it's true, but it sure would be nice. I played with a Motorola
6412 (the only thing Comcast offers here) and was amazed by how craptastic
it was. The GUI was horrible and the fan was so loud it sounded like a jet
was taking off in my living room (even when turned off). That plus it
lacked about a million features and only offered something like 20hrs of HD
recording. What a sorry piece of hardware. I'd love to have some other
option for recording the channels I can't with my mythbox.
