Asian Channel, I must commend you for your excellent trolling, even if it is vulgar, unpleasant, inaccurate and very unwelcome. I am glad to see you have gotten the responses you deserve.

blue666666 - congrats sir. I can only agree with the many numbers of posters who have said you will love it.
I am not loyal to VM, but currently they offer the best package for me. If I was ever allowed Sky in my flat, and they offered me a better deal (it would have a seriously sweet deal btw) I would seriously miss the TIVO box. Wishlists are just excellent, as are suggestions. I have seen a few extra shows I would have missed other wise.

Hopefully Netflix will soon pass all the tests and when that rolls out, and along with the update, it will make the TIVO even stronger in my eyes.

One word of warning though, the original boxes needed a couple of weeks to sort themselves out and get fully operational. The newer boxes may well work better and set themselves up quicker now though.:)

I got a Samsung TiVo in June it sorted itself out within a day, in July I got a cisco TiVo for my bedroom that box is a little slower than the Samsung.

I had a Cisco Tivo first last December which turned out to be faulty , it was replaced with a Samsung Tivo and it was all sorted within a day.

PQ seems decent , nice to see there also using the green 'remind me' function on all the trailers allowing you to series link straight from the promo loop , I would expect the content to be part of Sky catch up also at some stage.

Their previews say content is available on Sky on demand. Is that what I knew as Anytime when I was a Sky customer?

Yeah it is, Changed to on-demand in 2011 I think. Was just after they opened anytime plus to all broadband providers.

you're coming across really badly here. You haven't got any people supporting you. You obviously do not like this thread so why continue to post on here.

You've said your piece. No one agrees therefore leave this thread and the people in it alone. You're coming across as a petulent child with too much time on his hands.

Moving on

Do we have any ideas on tivo roll out timetable still??
