so lets recap !!!
if you have a new V HD box currently or in the future then you will get a software upgrade to allow the new TiVO EPG to work.
if you have a V+ box that you paid a premium to be installed (in some cases up to £150) you get a choice to stay with the old EPG and system, pay another premium to get a TiVO PVR or take a downgrade to the V HD box.
dont get me wrong but it seems out of order to screw the guys again who already paid a premium to get the V+ PVR box in the first place.
VM need to stop all this splitting of the customer bases as its totally stupid. look at the hasstle with the NGTV roll out to standardise the customers and then go and split it again. it seems a silly move to me and to roll over the prmium customers is an even dafter move.
