Well now you're just confusing things by making up something called a V+HD Box and saying that the V Box is still being supplied which isn't what has already been stated.

My current equipment is a non-HD, non-PVR Pace Di4000-N V Box. My understanding is that the V+ Box (HD and PVR) is no longer being supplied to new customers but that the V HD Box (HD but non-PVR) is available along with a choice of two capacities of TiVo unit.

Presumably though, existing customers with a faulty V+ Box can still get a replacement so I wonder if these are still available as upgrades to existing V Box customers too. As an XL customer I would not expect to have to pay an additional monthly fee plus an upfront cost for a TiVo box just to have the HD and PVR functionality of a V+ Box.

Anyway, I realise that this has become an off-topic dialogue so is there a thread where I can get the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about V+ and V HD boxes?

My vote for best question of the year !
