ITV Player HAS arrived

Not sure if I'm the first to brake the news on this site, but, thought I'd check Catch UpOn Demand this morning about 10 mins ago, and there ir was "itv net player".
I know it's been eagerly anticipated, so wanted to post this before I start work. There is a list of programs from the last seven days, but whilst ITV is now on the TV Choice section, nothing has yet been added.
Surprised me as BBC iPlayer was advertised well in advance, and 24th feb was just a rumour.
Any way, off to work,

It's been in our news articles on the front page since January the 8th...though to be fair no date was mentioned...

Not arrived here yet, but then again the regular TV choice updates(eg Last chance etc) haven't updated yet either.

Yes. I only have a partial launch. There is no tv choice content, certainly no HD content whatsoever, only 5 pages of catch up. I was wondering when for those that do have it the launch would be completed.

There is no information in the public domain to say that VM have even signed a deal with Five for an on demand service. I expect they are in talks though (Media Boy thinks so) as I have already pointed out Five have had an agreement with BT Vision for some months and in their submission for the HD slot on freeview they talk about all sorts of goodies. I know this must be very disappointing for you but other than saying probably in 2009 there's not a lot to go on.
