How many people are going to be able to justify the cost of buying a cable HDPVR and and a HD TV which can only be used to full effect on a limited number of channels / programmes? A lot of people who want the latest and best have probably already invested in Sky+ and wouldn't see much of an improvement for that high capital outlay. They would probably be inclined to sit back for a while to see how the situation pans out and what Sky do to remain competitive. Equipment costs will only come down significantly when demand is huge which I can't see being the case for some time.
