If anyone has seen Sky's implementation of the red button, and VM's middleware it is obvious that a great deal of work is needed to get it up and running on VM, both by Sky and VM themselves.

It isn't ideal but I have no reason to doubt the staff who have confirmed it's on it way and hopefully sooner rather than later. If it wasn't for them we would be even more in the dark so personally i'm always grateful for their input.

To be honest I personally wouldn't expect VM to go into the technicalities of what is needed to provide the service but Sky themselves did say from the outset of their smear campaign it would not be available until 2011, it's only 14/1/2011. I guess an update wouldn't go a miss though.

However, I would say it is a bit concerning that Sky Arts HD still hasn't arrived though as (I assume) there is nothing technical holding it back but I could be wrong on that.
