Ditto!! The the V+ box is far superior to the Sky Boxes and I am happy to wait for more channels in HD. I have been with cable since the Nynex days and the only box changes that I have had are the change to a digital one and the upgrade to the V+ box, my brother has had around ten changes of the Sky boxes within the same time frame due to constant failures plus a basically useless broadband so much so the he is changing over to virgin next week and looking forward to it, plus it actually works out cheaper with Virgin for a similar package but with 30 meg broadband. Not their so called up to 20meg offering which only delivers around 1/2 meg
I certainly do not want a HD channel just for the sake of saying I have it in HD when it consists mainly of upscaled 4:3 black and white films or programs.
