I had Virgin installed on Saturday and the installation guy (virgin employee, not Kellys) said that as I was having all 3 services and the top broadband, he would treat me with one of the few Samsungs he had on board.

He stated that the trouble is, word has started to get out as to how good they are and everyone now wants them.

He said that it simply isn't possible for Virgin to replace all perfectly working SA boxes with Samsung ones both from the point of view of sending an engineer out to every TV subscriber, and the cost of giving them a new box and disposing of their old one.

Maybe because of this, Virgin are putting the old pic on their web site so that they get fewer people phoning up asking for the newer one?
