5-10 seconds to switch a channel, almost the same channel lineup as Shaw (and no center ice), max of 2 TV's supported, no HDTV, no PPV, and if you're watching TV your internet download speed is cut in half (and Telus will only install their TV service if you're also a phone and internet customer of theirs). hell even when they rollout ADSL2 i can't see them actually competing with Shaw, a twisted pair phoneline is just no match for a coax cable for bandwidth
I was wondering how good TelusTV would be. It didn't really make sense to me. I didn't think it would be good, and you are not the 2nd person to confirm my suspicions.
