Maybe, maybe not. But I do know one thing. If your NTL box breaks (no matter how old it is), NTL will repair or replace it for free.

that is a good driveing force the replacement box for free thats what swayed us to leave sky in the end.;)

Just how out of date are the Teleport / On Demand previews on ch109?

Look closely at the Keane music competition which is part of the loop, the closing date is 31st July 2006. :erm:

The main advantage is that you can record/watch up to 3 NTL channels, in digital quality, all at once. It also lets you watch HD channels.

With a DVD recorder you can only record the one NTL channel you are watching, in analogue - just like a standard VCR.

Dunno if the December availability date for Coventry is accurate - after spending 20 minutes on the phone, I've been told that I had been 'misinformed' and that TV Drive won't be available in Coventry until January.

I spoke to CS on Saturday and they also said January for Coventry :(
Spoke to the roadshow in town last week, who gave so much incorrect information I didn't know whether to laugh?!
He said:
1. Telewest are launching it at the moment, NTL will be launching it next year
2. It will only cost an extra fiver a month
3. It will record over 300 hours worth of programmes
When I corrected him on point 1, he admitted that I probably knew more about it than him :confused:

Hi All,
Just rang NTL customer services, and asked for a pre-release booking for Northampton. They said that the release date had moved from 12th to 14th Dec and that I should call back to book a visit a couple of days after that. Oh well seems I wont have this in before Christmas, as by then I will have used all my holiday up.

Gazzaaa

The TV Drive will be changing its name to V+ Box as well.
