Re: Got invited for a trial
 

I received an invite.

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

No invitation for me but my wild guess is that this is a long awaited VOIP phone product. Something that will make use of the Telephone ports on the new Hub.

If they weren't intending to use these soon they would probably have hidden the related information in the VM version of the modem firmware

It's about time their new TV box got trialed.

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

I saw something about Power lines being mentioned a while back which is quite a good thing for Virgin to get into as it's ok having this super fast broadband but a lot of equipment can't actually make use of that top speed.
Power lines (if specced appropriately) could be a way for customers to use that speed.

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

Wonder if it is that.

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

Didn't get an invite either, but I suspect the trials are for VOIP.
Not Powerline or Tivo.
That's my 2 pence worth anyway ... :)

It would make financial sense if VM could ditch supporting old analogue phone lines, when they have a nice cabled broadband supply already into the home.

Could be for the new 4K tivo box

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

Sure it's only users with home/office packages that have been invited to the trial

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

It is. They want to trial powerline adapters. The things are useless and they should know this they've been told it enough times in the past, so I can't be bothered with it.

As for NDAs, that only applies to people they can enforce it upon, aka their staff.

The staff do all the trials, then when they're ready to release stuff they do a limited roll out first. They still call it a trial, but in effect its a roll out.

If its their TV box i wont get an invite as i got rid of their TV.

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

I don't have phone or TV so that explains why I didn't get invited :D

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

I have had 2 invites in the past and to be honest if they dont go well it can be a nightmare.

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

Which one. There are quite a few new trials.

Re: Got invited for a trial
 

How do you get an invite, post or e-mail?
