Amazing Technology

Switched from Shaw's Gateway system just this week after being a loyal customer for over 10 years and WOW! What a difference. Feel's like we've been living in the dark ages all this time and finally came into the light. True 1080i resolution, hands down blows Shaw out of the water with the best picture quality we've ever seen. No more lagging menu system, no more having to reboot the PVR or Terminals every time the wind changes direction, no more pauses during recording. Just a clean, crisp picture. Dump Shaw, buy this! You won't believe how good it is.

Unstable Technology

Had system for 3 months now, there has not been a single day that it worked properly! Sound cuts out, picture cuts out, pvr reboots...the lists goes on. This occurs on multiple sets. They said it was an HDMI problem and to use component hookup which did not help. How can you offer "new" technology that can't use HDMI????? The internet is sooooo much slower than with Shaw. There are numerous great features but when they NEVER work it really doesn't matter what the technology is supposed to deliver. Going to switch back!!!

Excellent!

Easy to set up & use. Can't imagine living without it now. No more commercials! Especially love being able to record three shows at once, which happens on occasion. No regrets.

good product and good services

I bought the device during last boxing week and have used it for weeks. This Telus Optik TV 500GB PVR receiver is very good and I am satisfied with it. Aslo,the service from the technical person(installation) is excellent and fast. So far I haven't found any problems with this device.

Telus PVR

Bought this PVR from the early Boxing Day sale online on December 25th, 2012. Great deal..! It is so easy to set up through Telus and they were very helpful with any of my questions. The PVR itself is very simple to use too. Very happy with this purchase, I have never owned or used a PVR so you can imagine how fantastic it was to use this receiver for the first time..
