It's interesting that every review I've seen for either VM TIVO or the US TIVO premiere picks up on the HD - SD screen issue, you would think TIVO would have made all screens HD , maybe they will in the future.

Re: TiVo
To a lot a dish is the only option especially new build estates , although I believe VM signed a deal with Persimmon homes recently.

Techradar review of the TiVo box has been uploaded.
http://www.techradar.com/reviews/aud...-938954/review
They have give it 4 starts out of 5. |
I do like TechRadar but's what's up with moaning about how the remote should be simplified and then asking for a QWERTY keypad in the against section.
