It'll be released when it is ready. There is no magic date set far in advance.

Think about it. If you were making new product, when would you sell it?

So even if it was ready now, you'd wait until the end of November instead of getting some immediate return on your development costs? Or if at the end of November it still wasn't finished, you'd release it anyway?

I won't be investing in your business!

Well no what I mean is you need to pick the optimum time when you can compete. I'd make sure it's ready on time and bring Christmas as the time to be the time for a fast new box

Over the weekend, sister and brother-in-law moved into their new house and had Sky Q installed. I must admit it's a pretty fancy box and the UI is really smooth.

Virgin have a lot to live up to if they want to at least match Sky Q box, but we really want them to do better lol. The little mini boxes were pretty cool, but didn't see them in action.

Wonder if VM will have the same kind of set-up with their own multi-room boxes...has there been any word on that?

Er, what's Sky got to do with the new Tivo box? :confused::banghead:

Except that the new box will be better and cheaper than Sky Q!

It's always useful to benchmark similar products from different companies for comparison.
