Received the email below from Virgin this morning with regards to the 500gb Tivo. Just wondering if this deal is the same one they have already mentioned (£49 Tivo, £40 activation/install fee) or if it is going to be something new. I realise most people on this thread now have the 1tb version, so wouldn't have receveived this email.

It would be nice if they could cut out the activation fee, as it I can't afford the 1tb version of the box, so anything to help in todays current climate would be a bonus.

"Thanks again for entering our prize draw to win one of our amazing TiVo® boxes. We know you didn't manage to get a free box this time round, but we've got something up our sleeves that we think you'll like.

We're busy rustling up an offer just for you, based on our 500GB TiVo box. It holds around 250 hours of standard TV, and we're launching it in May.

So, keep your eyes peeled for our exclusive offer. We'll pop it in the post for you soon, with a unique offer code that you'll need to quote.

While you're waiting, take another look at all the amazing things that Virgin Media TV powered by TiVo can do".
