Pros: Nice interface, Nice picture/sound quality, can connect 2 different TV's and watch 2 different shows. Cons: Terrible reliability issues, very frequent freezing, rebooting, and shows getting cut into or off completely. The Bottom Line: I would not recommend this product unless you rarely watch TV and have hardly any programs you want to record, otherwise you will be extremely frustrated/disappointed with this product. from Shopping.com

Pros: HD recording, 3 tuner capacity, Episode by name recording

Cons: Standard definition needs improvement

The Bottom Line: Go with the lease option with 18 month commitment till they introduce a higher capacity / 1080p model in the future.

Cons: No 1080p (yet), has an ethernet jack but no functionality (yet).

from Shopping.com I was concerned about getting this unit based on other's negative experiences, but after a month of use I would say I am a satisfied customer. As with any hard drive you have your occasional glitches, but fortunately it's rare enough to not interfere with the viewing pleasure. I did have to disconnect the UHF antenna in the back and reprogram my remote because the thing was picking up stray signals from the next town. from Amazon.com I've had this unit since they were first released, about a year or more ago. For the most part, its worked as advertised. from Amazon.com I am always cynical when I see someone brutally slam an item, but the ViP622 is absolute garbage. It is a shame that Amazon won't allow you rate items with negative numbers because this product doesn't even rate one star. from Amazon.com Pros: - very clean interface, easy to use - great image quality from Amazon.com It's high-tech with easy to use commands, good remote control/recording features, excellent HD picture quality and reasonable amount of HD recordable space. Technical problems I've had: * Once a month the sound stops working and I have to reboot, it happens while watching a program. from Amazon.com I had a 622 and a 211 receiver installed and have had no problems in video or audio. We are in the process of purchasing another 622 receiver. from Amazon.com
