Hello,

Some questions about EPG :

-(1)- After the 2 free first 2 years, what will be the annual or monthly price for EPG ?

-(2)- If I am not interested by EPG, how can I avoid my Ipronto to connect every night ?
Actually it seems not possible to disconnect EPG update, so it should be a vey useful and good idea for the Philips Ipronto team to add this possibility in the next firmware update.
After the free first 2 years, actually EPG seems to be what we call in Fance an "Illegal forced selling"
What do you think about that ?

-(3)- I noted some of the last sheduled conecting hours for EPG :
4:16, 5:55, 4:38, 4:41, 4:21, 4:11, 4:38, 4:31, 4:14, 4:56, 4:16, and so on..
So is-it the Ipronto which choice this timing, or is-it the EPG server , at the end of each previous connection ?

-(4)- Have you noted some EPG server problems on recent days ? :
I have (with some French friends), once or 2 times a week, an "EPG Partial download" without any retry :
"Download was partial successful. The program information for the EPG could only partially be download. Ipronto will try again later"

These partial nightly downloads are 2 ' long (9' long if full)
On the next morning, a manual Epg update is always full

Thanks for your ideas, help and experiences
Jean-Max
