Excellent Gadget (27/03/2007)
Just posted two comments and its replaced my original so here we go with a combined effort... I originally wrote something like: This is a really great gadget and a keeper for sure and I've hardly even used it yet. I have only one suggestion and that is to reduce the size as there appears to be a large amount of white-space inside the gadget. This is a really useful gadget but would be great if this suggestion could be taken on board. I then wrote... I just realised why this gadget sits so big, its to make room for the listings, etc. As a preference I'd rather the gadget was smaller and used a fly-out to show the actual listings which could then be much larger than is currently shown making it more useful while taking up less room on the gadget bar.

Excellent! (28/07/2009)
I love this gadget, and WebGuide. Why I cannot do from a standard Vista/Windows 7 computer by default what this gadget can do I do not know but WebGuide and this gadget add a functionality I have wanted for a very long time. And BTW - gadget works fine with Windows 7 for me.

I would like to be able to use the guide while I'm watching TV to change the channel.

Pretty Cool (04/11/2007)
A pretty cool gadget. Very useful for recording programs, especially as oppose to opening media center and navigating to a show for recording. Well done. My only complaint is you can't punch in a channgel number. Also, it's be cool to see if someone could make it a mini tv gadget as well.

Nice (15/10/2007)
Good gadget, but desperately needs the ability to switch to a specify channel number manually. It's a pain to go from my local channels on DirecTV to the 300's, and sometimes 600's.

Very nice (19/08/2007)
I've been looking for this for a while. I like to power down my MCE for power savings but having to launch mce and navigate to scheduled recordings every time is a little irritating. This is a nice summary. Like the 'watch now' option for recorded TV. Should add it for the guide data as well.

Amazing (21/05/2007)
If you're using Media Center - you absolutely have to have WebGuide, and there's no way to rate this gadget any less than 5 stars. If you're not using MC - then this is not relevant for you. How this gadget can get an overall rating of 2.5 stars is beyond me.
