Otherwise your £3 per month is kind of being wasted.

Have to admit that I will certainly be thinking about getting the 500gb Tivo. My main reason for upgrading would be the extra disc space. I realise what you are saying with regards to the wishlist function, but this is something that I don't see my self using anyway. And although the wishlist is one of the main features of the box, I'm hoping that I will be getting good value for the extra £3pm charge

It's just a shame Virgin can't waver the install fee, but I'm still OK to pay current 500gb Tivo asking price.
