The EPG on Sky+ HD is only in SD so looks pants (so does virgin's) but people have been waiting a very long time for the HD EPG and it will be here soon.
The only downside of the Sky+ HD box is the SD picture is not especially pleasant. Virgin upscales very well SD, it just sucks to have only 1 HD channel that isn't even a full channel until March.
