Rewinding after channel change and slow channel change

I have an AIW X800XL and haven't been impressed with either it's performance or the software that came with it. So I downloaded the BeyondTV trial this week and I like the software interface and the fact it will actually schedule and record shows, but I have a few concerns before I buy it and Hauppage 150. Maybe someone can help me out.

First, when I'm watching TV with Beyond TV and I change the channel it takes a second or two. It's a lot slower than the TV program that came with my AIW. Will that go away when I have the better Hauppage 150?

Second, whenever I change the channel, I can't rewind and watch whatever I had just seen. For example I watch 20 minutes of channel 30, and then change to channel 31, I end up losing the 20 minutes on channel 30. Is this how Beyond TV work, or do I not have something set up correctly? The AIW and it's software allow you to rewind to whatever you were watching, no matter what channel you change.

Finally, whenever a new show comes on Beyond TV won't let me rewind to what I had just been watching. Is that a problem with Beyond TV or my setup?

Thank you. I would like to buy Beyond TV bundle with the remote before April 10th while it's on sale, but I'd like to resolve my concerns before hand.
