Record Remotely
 
I love V+HD...LOVE IT!

But, there's one feature missing that I really want to be incorporated - setting programs to record REMOTELY - using something such as a mobile phone or an online portal.

From what I know, you can do such with sky with a mobile phone. Yet there's no feature for doing this on the V+HD boxes: and I think there really should be.

Picture the scene...you're out doing your christmas shopping when you realize that your missing a shed load of christmas TV. Well of course you can't just rush from from milton keynes - one hour away whilst doing your christmas shopping, and you don't want to miss the christmas TV because it only happens once a year.

So, you just take out your mobile phone and set it to record. Easy peasy like I said it's extremely easy. Or alternatively pop into an internet cafe; use an IP address to log into a portal, and set a program to record.

Aaah, the wonders of technology :)

I believe this is something they are looking at doing, possibly once TIVO is rolled out ;)

Would be A brilliant function if I could find something worth watching on the 140 or so channels.
