Re: i am thinking to get V+
I would get the V+ box for the upscaling even if there wasn't any HD content.
I was watching the rugby upstairs on me 27" LCD with normal Samsung box this afternoon and it looked pretty average. I went downstairs to watch on orders from the wife at half-time and on the 32" LCD with a V+ box it looked completely awsome. This wasn't BBC HD.
Upscaling rocks!

Only the BBC HD channel at the moment I'm afraid. There is HD content on VoD though.

Yes - I had it installed yesterday, and watched some of the Blue Planet VoD stuff this afternoon which is in HD. The scenes with waves is mind-blowing.

Re: i am thinking to get V+
V+ is a very good device and service and I would recommend it today however you may have to wait a while for more HD channels to appear. The current content in HD is superb and as most say on this thread state, the upscaled SD channels do look amazing.
