Two features I would really like to see is whole-house DVR and the ability to schedule DVR recordings via the web.  Do you think this will ever happen on TWC?

SA/Cisco has had a MR set top for years: http://www.cisco.com/web/consumer/support/settop_8300HD_multiroom.html.  I'm not sure why TWC never went with it, unless they didn't want to deal with programming the MRV function into Navigator.

Yes,

Remote DVR Management is coming to all DVR boxes in the future.  (MDN/ODN)  To use it, you will need to sign up for a "TWC MY SERVICES" account at your local TWC webiste when it comes out.

Every room DVR is coming out in the future, BUT that will ONLY be available on ODN (C) boxes and the Samsungs.

If you want to know what TWC is going to have in the future:

1.  Check out what DirecTV, Dish, ATT & Verizon have right now.
2.  Wait 18-24 months for TWC to catch up
3.  Get "new" technology from TWC
4.  Be disgusted that this or that new TWC feature doesn't work right.
5.  Switch to any of the above providers
6.  Never look back
