Done. The Langley Pace boxes and all Samsung boxes use RC5 instead of the TWTV protocol (a version of IrDA).

Red button doesn't cause box to crash

Mostly done. It's certainly a lot more reliable than before. However, red button applications can cause any STB to crash - cable, satellite or DTT: that's the nature of computers. We can never guarantee 100% reliability.
This is required for the coming PVR

Interactive TV as on Freeview/Sky (football 1st etc)

This mostly depends on Sky (with regards to Football First, certainly). They hold the rights, and so we must negotiate with them to obtain the right to distribute the programming via cable.

Be no more expensive than Sky

Done - and have been for some time. In fact, cable is often cheaper than Sky as the Sky price increase is usually absorbed by ntl for a period of months each year.
