I cringed when I saw in the item description that the Arvin TV mentioned in this thread can be used with a Comcast (!) analog cable box. I mention this because I've read some rather disparaging comments in this forum regarding Comcast and its cable service, referring to the company as "Crapcast". Thank God I have Time Warner cable here.
Not one bit of trouble with the service, although I do not use a cable box. The cable connects directly to the TV, so there is nothing much to go wrong at my end except problems with the physical cable line coming into my apartment, the cable going to the television, or the splitter that divides my cable signal between the TV, my computer, and my telephone (all three use the same cable, thus the need for a splitter).
