I entered the website competition but didn't win. I didn't bother pre-registering as I believed in all likelihood I wouldn't be able to afford it. I think that the £149 plus a £40 intall fee for a box that you are renting, when many of us paid upfront for V+, I was right. I was a little surpirsed, as I thought that pre-reggers would get a better deal than that, but there's no point in moaning as there is no compulsion to get one. It looks like a good product, albeit still with the odd bug, I'll probably take a look at the smaller version when that is launched.
For the people who were moaning when it got to March 31st and were moaning they hadn't had their email, have you really been sitting round your computers for 4 months waiting, LOL! And as for some of the abuse at VM staff, well that is completely out of order. If waiting for a new cable box is the worst thing that is happening in your life, then it ain't that bad!
