Its not insulting at all. Most people that are willing to pay a higher charge to get something right away know what they are getting and those people not really sure or those that are aware that prices will probably drop within a few months will know to wait.
They aren't missing TiVo features though. TiVo still has all the features it had in the USA. What is missing are V+ and other UK digital TV features, which are currently being coded and tested for release later this year.
