True, but it seems Jay is interested enough in the vertical EPG to do
some coding, and--since he mentioned favorites lists--I thought I'd
mention that, too.  The favorites lists would actually be far more
useful for me since they could be used outside of LiveTV (think
MythWeb's listings page allowing you to choose which favorites list to
display...).
