That suggests to me that they are experiencing serious problems during the staff testing phase. If not why, after all the hype, are there no boxes for customers and why do the staff have to sign the official secrets act.

This is a completely new box manufactured by Cisco, not Tivo, and it has a completely new software programme designed by Tivo for Virginmedia. It is bound to have problems. All you have to do is look back at the introduction of any of the platforms when they introduced new technology. They all had bugs. Even the Samsung V+ had a serious fault resulting in many boxes failing and having to be replaced.
