Indeed. I've never seen one so don't know either, but it does look good. Whether it works is another matter. According to what's been posted on youtube etc it seems okay, but you can never tell until one is right in front of you.

But we get the speed increase instead to sort our own "channels" out....
Really, VM/Liberty are on a cusp. They can now deliver faster download speeds than most people currently don't need or want. But lack basic things on the tv side (as has always been the case with UK cable) like a fast stb, missing channels etc
Pre Netflix/Amazon, this didn't matter. Now it does. Everyone still wants a net connection, but the tv side of things looks a far less attractive option. Either VM adapt to the new world or, as may happen with CBS/Viacom soon, die.
