I understand there is a bigger picture. However, as a customer who invested thousands into a product line that is now defunct and doesn't operate 100% how it should.

Wifi dropouts,
Remotes that turn themselves on and off until the battery drains. (my 2 biggest complaints)

I feel it is within my rights to be aggravated.

Also with windows 8 announced as being released in 2 years, means I have to keep a computer strictly for programming with the current software. To some it may mean nothing, but to me it has completely ruined my opinion of philips as a whole.

Why bother sending us on a goose chase for some registration code if they have no plans of continuing the product.
