The key for me is don`t rush in to get it at launch because the fewer uptakes at the start will force down the price much quicker and perhaps lower.

If VM announced prices now then Sky would only alter theirs and VM would have to change theirs making their original prices meaningless. Far better to see how Sky Q is performing and then announce their prices in December. But even then, the number of special deals that VM and Sky do makes price lists irrelevant at times.

I'll wait - I'm used to waiting for things to happen, I've got a TiVo!

Agreed. Early adopter = You pay the supplier extra for the privilege of testing their software for them!

I think she went on to head up Vodafone's UK retail broadband and TV operations. More sign of those 100 apps than Vodafone TV!
