Those ads are horrible and a major deterrence to ease of use on the guide. I don't mind ads but don't place them where they impact the scroll. Tivo S3 - here I come. x2 what fGriffon said.

The worse thing about these totally intrusive banners is they make the guide less usable then it already was (which is saying something). When ever you move up or down with the arrows it catches on the stupid banner slowing scrolls and adding tracking problems to what is happening on the screen. It dropped the WAF even lower then it already was for the over all experience, which ranked pretty low compared to our old direct TV HD tivo. So my question is what kind of crack are Comcast exes smoking, they do know they are already charging me for the box and guide right? Do they really think they get to double dip like this with out driving away customers to their competitors? First day it popped up I reached for the phone and started to call dish network but the wife asked to wait until we smoked through the current show list. My god, the greed and stupidity.
