After 4 days on the Ignite TV system (after Rogers forced me to give up my HDPVR Gateway) I cannot stand this any longer.  These are my deal breakers:

• Not being able to switch between up 6 different channels (especially for live sports and news broadcasts) without losing the ability to immediately rewind the action precisely as I want.
  
  
• Not being able to pause, rewind and replay key moments in super slow motion.
  
  
• The entire interface so badly designed.  Its also clunky and lags terribly.
  
  
• The buttons on the remote are ridiculously hard to press.

I am in the BC interior.  Does Telus Optik TV have the above capabilities?  Are there any TV providers that offer equipment with either built in tuners and/or the above capability?
