But for those with tablets already they may be just as happy to use those. But it does give options to those not wanting to invest in a permanent 2nd TV I guess. But price is very important with this.
I won't be buying one at £299!

As the VM Telly Tablet is Android though, perhaps this means that those of us with Android tablets will now be able to stream from the box and use TV Anywhere??

Only from posts on here, AIUI, the new update hasn't been rolled out everywhere yet.

The VM website has been (and still is) saying one off fees of £54.99.

Worth pointing out that there is no extra monthly cost, the usual TiVo monthly fee will still apply.
