oh come on Zee, it looks like we have a load of the salesman posting here today, lets face it they have had months to get this stuff in place and they cant even change the generic STB
firmware to reflect the VM gfx, ( and i'v reset the box several times today to check and clear the hung mini guide).
as for the 'ON Demand' selection , it has looked like a proof-of-concept' accountants first ever try at creating a webpage since it appeared here (C&W/NTL area)months ago.
who in 2007 wants to have to press the back button and a-to-z selections over and over, for instance to do a simple browse of the 4oD content you have something like 14 back/select key presses, and thats not including the page down/up and ? info presses JUST to see if theres anything werth watching, currently NOTHING id watch, never mind consider paying a fee for.
its just sad the way they (and some posters [VM employees?]here)hype up the change and massive spending on the advertising, and yet cant even be bothered to get a reasonable selection of gfx front ends to replace the current (as far as im concerned)'proof-of-concept' pages you as the end user can select for your prefered control options for instance.
they have had months to test and put this better control for the end users in place,and in doing so could have given people something to talk about, but they didnt, sure it might come sometime soon , but thats no excuse and everyone knows it.
this is what they are spending your hard earned cash on, fancy advertising and no practical benefits for the end user, never mind real innovation to speak of.....
