Consumer fails to mention the reason for this and some other relatively high readings (eg My Sky HD) compared to some others in the test, and penalises high-use units for this in the overall results (standby power counts for 10% of the final mark).
If interested, Tivo gets a 72% overall result, lowest equal of the terrestrial PVRs tested (no Magic - I guess reflecting their scarcity at the moment).
I see they include the DishTV T1020 which records to an external drive, and apparently allows two channels to be recorded. Does this really come with dual tuners or is it like my old Vantage which allowed two channels on the same mux to be recorded (a far more limiting feature)? If so, they really need to clarify this.
