it fixes 3 issues
1) "oh fuck where is the remote" while puking, I guess I put my remote in my shorts pocket... then I was at carinas and the channel wouldn't change. I realized that my remote was in my pocket and must have fallen out on her chair
2) you can look at a huge schedule and just click on what you want to watch or record and the box does it. This is awesome cause the DVR menus blow dicks.
3) you are away from home and realized that you forgot to record the newest episode of dora the explorer.
