I'm pretty sure it is a Cisco ipv 6015. And yeah I'd say it was worth it, issues listed below notwithstanding.

Couple small issues. The slimline remote no longer functions with my receiver, box and tv in unison, only slimline 2 works. Relatively minor but I just preferred the old remote layout better so too bad I have to use the new one.

One complaint that seems to be common is the new box isn't compatible with tv/receiver syncing. So while the old slimline remote can no longer turn all three - tv, receiver, cable box - on/off with one push of a button, the new box isn't compatible with hdmi control functions. On my Sony stuff it is called Bravia sync but I've read about other brands like Samsung having similar features disabled due to a software problem with the box. Not a huge issue but an inconvenience nonetheless.
