anyone use the Scietific Atlanta 8000HD DVR box? I just found out Time Warner in Austin now has this HD box with DVR. I'm wondering if it is worth the extra 8 to 10 bucks a month for DVR.
most importantly is whether i'll actually use it enough to warrant the extra cost but i'd like to know whether the 8000HD can be used to display standard programming out through the component video cables. its seems like it is more advanced than my current 3100HD and like it should work. right now i have to use the S-vid cable to watch non-HD programming. would be a nice perk if i no longer needed to switch inputs on the tv.
