Funny how they can block the 3rd party apps so quickly but not release the tivo app that they replaced.

So the official TiVo iPad app will still work?

The UK one will, yes.

:D:p:

What about the official US TiVo app, surely that's using all the same API's as the one that VM delayed?

Was it 100% compatible though? Never used that myself.

They must be close to releasing the UK Official apps if they did this?

Does any one know if this is an area by area update? if so are there any dates for the areas when they'll be updated.

100%. I've included some screenshots below just to demonstrate how complete it really is; Take note of Virgin Media Movie Awards category, FilmFlex as well as the option to get shows from on demand. :)

The US app works beautifully. Faster navigation, really tidy UI.
The only bit the doesn't work perfectly is one of the gestures windows - the less useful one in fact.
I really don't understand why it's not been possible to release that one in the uk already.
Maybe VM are implementing an addition to the app which will allow us to stream to the iPad. Well, I can dream.
