RCA/MSN TV 2 Internet and Media Player
Very Dissapointing
I have owned the RCA Msntv2 receiver for all of one week, and must say that compared to the Webtv classic receiver & service, it is very dissapointing. <br /> <br />   The only good points I can find are more memory/storage space, and the log-in music is more pleasing. <br /> <br />   The cordless keyboard misses just as many keystrokes as the old one, page loading is just as slow as before, and the changes to the keyboard are definitely not for the better. <br /> <br />   Someone decided not only to remove the command key, making highlighting text a thing of the past, but also moved he escape key to the bottom left-hand corner, the power button to top center, and added a redundant 'OK' key less than an inch frm the enter key, which does the same thing. This key is now in the position formerly occupied by the page down key. <br /> <br />   Navigation usualy requires two to three keystrokes & page changes to accomplish the same task as one keystroke did before. <br /> <br />   Making something more complicated does NOT make it better. All in all, I would reccomend that you stay with your trusty classic receiver, if you have one. For simplicity and convenience, it is still better than buying a PC, and better than the MSNTV2 receiver, too. <br /> <br />   I would be surprised if this review remains viewable. After all, this site's job is to sell you this stuff, good or bad. And be advised, critical complaints to MSN support techs can result in your account being sabotaged. I speak from personal experience. <br /> <br />   Sincerely, <br />   CCE
