I'm sure VM are impressing on the BBC the need to sort this out one way or another. However as soon as the BBC detail what exact reductions they will be making to the red button services on the V boxes (and Sky) this may all become academic

2) As we seem to now have capacity (and until the BBC pull their finger out) add the red button streams we are not getting to one of the channels we used to have for the Olympics.

As far as I know that wouldn't be possible - not from a technical point of view but from a regulatory point.

Either way we SHOULD be getting the red button streams and VM have the capability to make it happen!

Except they cannot take any action without the agreement of the BBC.

Additionally, I'd possibly think the reason for the delay is because they want to wait until there is only the same single red button stream across all the platforms. It then fits in with the 'consistent' experience the BBC want.
Remember, the TiVo apps are part of the 'Connected TV' app set across Smart TVs, the PS3 etc, so the BBC will want to deviate as little as possible with the app experience
