On the Topfield, if you watch a recorded programme half way through then stop and start watching a different one, does it remember where you were up to in the 1st when you go back to it?
Recorded programmes
Yes; go to archive; select recording and press Play; goes to last watched point. If you press OK goes to start instead.
NB this is standard behaviour no TAPs needed. With My Stuff TAP loaded pressing play during live TV takes you back to last position in last watched recording in addition to the above.

The Toppy looks great in black, and it's got a very slinky slightly rubber feel to it as well. If you like that sort of thing

The toppy especially in black (I have one of each ) looks better in the flesh (if you will excuse the expression; and at the risk of over exciting Nigel even more 
) than in its piccys.

FWIW, when I had a Humax I didn't like the bright mirror finish that doesn't really show up in the marketing photos.
Here are some shots that almost show the mirroring.

It does look good in black but all my other AV stuff is silver!
Anyway, I not buying one for cosmetic reasons.

All my AV stuff is also silver but I didn't like the look of a silver Toppy. I therefore went for a 250Gb black panther and I am glad I did. It's smaller that I thought and the matt black finish makes it look really good to my eyes. Most of my silver AV kit also has black bits and bobs so it doesn't look out of place.
Another advantage of the matt black case is, from what I remember of physics at school, that it will probably be better at dissipating the heat.
Besides, black is the new silver! I reckon the move away from silver has begun. Perhaps I can have all silver in the lounge and then get black kit for my upstairs "snug" where the Toppy sits with a wee 5.1 surround sound and 26" LCD.
