Favourites are still there, I tried adding all the HD channels but there's too many of them (you can only have 50 favourites). I've never found it much use though, as you can only go through one at a time, unless I'm missing something?

No you're not missing something. i just don't have that many favourites. I have just a couple in each genre then use the up and down buttons to skip the adjacent channels, or use the Sky app on my Touch. The last programme I watch on tv was Not Going Out last Thursday. I'm not a big tv viewer.

Clare Newsome:I'm confused at people being confused. I wouldn't have a clue what any channel number was/is on Sky - I go straight to the HD channel listing on the EPG and select from there

Same here Clare, i've never used the numbers always go through the guide.

It just takes too long, either I know the number or I know the section it's in (1**, 3**, etc), so I'll go to the first channel and then scan from there.

I dont bother with the numbers and i dont feel im wasting much of my life finding channels.

You all probbaly know this but you can also find your favourites in the planner, just press the left arrow when you're on All Channels, and you're there.

I had quite a rant when the new HD EPG came out, but I must admit i quite liek it now. I was with a relative the otehr day who hasnt got HD and i found it quite irritating.

OTOH i still dont know how to page down. And im sure there are things i dislike if i really think about it.
