I agree , it will be interesting to see pricing models when entertainment and sports get added. Being slightly critical for the service to become a huge success HD needs to be added to all devices.

100% agree, HD is a must for this service to really work

I just realised, you will probably be on Jellybean by the time the ICS app is released!

I was going to get a Nexus 7 for Sky Go but I doubt it will be on there any time soon so might give it a miss :(
