Notables:
-Even though the Shaw is a Dual Tuner PVR, you can not access the recorded content or guide from another TV the way you can with the Bell PVR.
-As mentioned before, not having the guide on the other TV's is a huge adjustment for us.
-Minor, but convenient, the Bell remote has a "jump forward" feature that jumps forward 30 seconds or so (really convenient for commercial lengths). The Shaw remote does not have this.
-On TVs other than the one with the receiver attached, you only get Tier 3 content, nothing above.
These are all minor issues and so far I'm pretty happy with the Shaw service. Our total TV, Phone, Internet bill has dropped by about $50 a month.

What cables go from the Bell box to other TV's that allow you to access the guide?
With shaw you need to buy multiple receivers - althrough the non high def al cheapo is something like 50$.
