Notentirelypositive & custom IR

Cripes - looks like I almost started a holy war! :)  I must say it's
reassuring to see that the problems encountered by the reviewer do not seem
to be shared by the majority of respondents, and I'm sure that this amount
of discussion on the product's flaws can only be a healthy thing.

If memory is indeed a limiting factor, would it be possible to revise the
design to support user upgradeable memory?  It could potentially lengthen
the product's life cycle, and expand the possibilities for custom modules.

The remote seems to be another common complaint - an unresponsive remote can
certainly be a frustrating thing.  Considering that the key goal of the user
is likely to be "to relax and feel comfortable", surely it makes sense to
try make this as easy as possible to achieve.

Would it be fair to say that a significant proportion of Roku customers are
either technically skilled end users, or system integrators working on
behalf of their clients?   An important product feature for these groups is
the level of support for programmable remotes and control systems, from $10
"universal remotes" to top end home automation systems.  The extent of
Roku's technical support for this is extremely encouraging, and serves only
to make me even more keen to get my hands on an HD1000!

Well done Roku!

Cheers,
