I read on DS that a 'Star Trek' app is to launch on April 11.

Wow! One app I might actually have to use for a while :)

I guess that's timed for CBS Action showing the remastered TOS as that starts at 18:00 on the 11th.

And in my mind Lew the original series is still the best even though the other series were still very good.

Sorry guess i was wrong in thinking that Sky sports red button was on Tivo:confused: Match choice as Den pointed out was available on HD box for champions league last night but not on Tivo and it appears that red button is also missing on TiVo for the masters:( Looks like to get all services you have to have various different Virgin boxes. That I'm afraid to say is very very unprofessional

:D MM, but really who launches a new supposedly upgraded box that lacks many of the good things that the old box has, ie red button on various channels, easy recording and reminders. TiVo has some decent features but some very large glaring og's:(

Lucky you both have the use of the VHD box. But, I have to say what are VM playing at?

Ah well it is getting a Star Trek app:rolleyes:

How the hell can they not have red button service for the biggest football club competition in Europe and for one of the golf majors but have it on the old box. Beggars belief!

Explain that away

Because I for one would rather have the Tivo as it is now than not at all before they add miminally-useful stuff like reminders.

I don't think they have "red button" in the US, so it's had to be added and that has taken some time. Possibly longer than they thought it would.

Carl, obviously you are entitled to your opinion but to me TiVo is beginning to look like a large space to store hours and hours of tv and not a lot more.
