It's brand new technology to the UK market so I'd be expecting to pay an installation fee plus a monthly instalment. When V+ launched back in 2005, formerly TVDrive, all customers had to pay a monthly sub regardless of their package.
Quote taken from the December 2005 press release:
"TV Drive is expected to launch nation-wide early next year and will cost £10 per month for customers taking the company's top digital TV package, or £15 per month otherwise. Unlike existing PVRs, there are no large purchasing costs and maintenance is included in the monthly fee."
If the TIVO box is all singing and all dancing then I'm sure we'll be asked to pay extra for the privilege.
