Rule of thumb for any timeline written by a project manager double it.

So the real timelines likely to be:

PVR: Q4 2006

HDTV: Q4 2007

So the more service you take the cheaper it gets ? Not really a loyalty reward then is it. Loyalty reward should be given to long standing customers who have been putting up with NTL for the last 5 years

I won't hold my breath but I hope they do give long standing customers some rewards for sticking with them. A free PVR and HD screen for example...
