Anyway, us Mr Publics don't receive investor briefings; we see heavy sky+ advertising everywhere, and high street retailers flogging Freeview pvrs for £120. Meanwhile, there's not the slightest public suggestion that ntl are even thinking about providing something similar. It may be awesome if it finally does appear; it may also be too late.

Edit: found a cheaper freeview pvr
