Sky's red button app is totally incompatible with the cable software/hardware. it has been written from scratch with VM and Sky, so yes - it's technical ;)

Surely if the red button was coming they would have mentioned it in their latest advert? Virgin don't exactly advertise very often. Given that sky have just heralded Atlantic I would have thought virgin would want to strike back tv wise asap? Obviously not!
