With the new pricing structure you would think it would be time to stop offering new customers a V+ box.

That could well happen more quickly then we think.

Got almost a 4 week wait for my V+ to be swapped for a Tivo :(.

Any hints how to bring it forward? Twitter team etc?

High demand at the moment for TiVo I'm afraid. The agents can only book in what is on the system. Routing will always try to pull appointments forward if they can, so make sure VM have your mobile number.

And some forum members said that it was not selling too well.

Change the date and time on all the clocks, Then when you have it installed you will say it is late (when it is not):erm:

Sorry can not be of help:(

I only phoned them up last Wednesday and was told that it was £49.99 plus £40 inst/act fee. I decided no.
But now I will seriously think about it.
I do like the fact that it has it's own internet connection?
So should make streaming from LoveFilm more stable.

65,000 Pre-Regs according to 1st Quarter results:

Don't you need the Lovefilm service on the TIVO box to do that ?

No idea, I guess we'll find out in the 2nd quarter results. I'm assuming that the majority of the 65,000 took the offer.
