They way I look at it pre-regs are getting £50 off the publicised price because the publicised price is inclusive of the standard £49 HD activation fee. As many pre-regs have already paid a HD activation fee at some stage, myself included, Virgin aren't really jumping through hoops to offer us a truly great deal. They simply couldn't ask pre-reg customers who have already paid for HD activation in the past, to pay the fee all over again.

I could well be wrong, and someone will undoubtedly correct me, however this is my own view and opinion on their deal.
