So in answer to your question, I consider what I'm doing to be 'wise'.

I'd check the small print before you sign with $ky if I were you. You won't get free install if you choose the base pack, you will pay a fee of £60.
Of course, you can sign up for the £19.50 family pack and then downgrade after the free sub period, provided there is no tie in - there wasn't on the deal I signed up for before Christmas.
Just be warned, you get a lot more in NTL's base pack than in Sky's. TBH if bargain-basement DTV is what you want, I'd stick with NTL - it's worth the extra pahnd in my opinion, and personally I never had any problems with the phone service either.
