No, received the remote on the Saturday Morning, got the phone call on, I think, the following Tuesday and had it installed on the 17th.
I think you may need to chase them up, although that could be easier said than done!

I think VM should stock these, for sale,along with the wifi dongles that connect the tivo boxes to your local network.

Of course the ipad app will blow those qwerty remotes out of the water

Yeah, a "TiVo Shop" App would be great :) :) :)

Is the TiVo Slide confirmed to work with the VM version?

The ipad app has it's own thread, please stick with that

I'd love a Tivo slide out qwerty remote. That would make text input far superior. I hope VM have plans to stock these.

Can't be that hard to make, just change the ir frequency and put a virgin sticker at the bottom!

It won't work, but there may be a VM version introduced at some point.

I hope so, I'd certainly pay for it :)

It won't work as the Slide remote is bluetooth and not IR.

I would definitely pay for it! Hopefully there aren't any technical limitations which would prevent them from introducing this.
