...I agree, good point.
Re the comment made that the world cup in hd can't be watched on a mpeg 2 box. Why not?
The beeb only made their HD annoucement yesterday and Sky confirmed their HD prices and launch date today. So, perhaps people should give ntl a bit of time to see if they're gonna launch HD in time for the world cup. Say by next Wednesday... and if no announcement by then, mass calls to Sky cs
Seriously, Sky have always been ahead with product launches and probably always will be. Although I think BT might give both ntl and Sky a run for their money soon.
Just don't complain on here folks when your watching your HD matches on Sky and the picture stops because of a few drops of rain on your satellite dish...
EDIT:
err... I forgot for a second that Telewest have launched a HD service before anyone...so cable not always so slow.
