It's not absolutely obvious, but guessing it replaces the old box, especially as I remember when it was called a V+ box and certainly was a direct swap then.

Well, still no 5+1, so won't be any use for Celebrity Big Brother which is the most needed usage, although Neighbours will be a help although shown four times a day already so not exactly a problem finding a slot every day already. I suppose as Virgin aren't connected to C5 then they had no incentive to bring it on to fit CBB which is a shame and I probably won't use it for any other programmes till the new series in the summer. Better late than never but I could have been watching something else now if they'd had it, I can't be bothered recording absolutely everything as I've got more than enough stored up already.
