Sky builds on broadband growth with increased coverage, 10,000 WiFi hotspots and new fibre launch

http://corporate.sky.com/media/press...w_fibre_launch

Providing customers with free WiFi wherever they are: Sky will shortly launch its public Wi-Fi service, powered by The Cloud. This will provide Sky Broadband Unlimited customers with free access to more than 10,000 hotspots across the UK. Available in venues such as Caffe Nero, Pizza Express and Wagamama, Sky customers will enjoy seamless and convenient access to public WiFi. This will prove particularly valuable for customers who access Sky content on the go, with high quality wireless delivering an even better experience for Sky Go and Sky’s other video-rich applications.
Adding choice with Sky Broadband Unlimited Fibre: Sky is to give customers even more choice by adding a fibre broadband product to its range from April. For £20 a month, customers will be able to access download speeds of up to 40 megabits with a totally unlimited product that has no usage caps. From launch the new product will be available to around 30% of UK homes, growing over time in line with BT’s fibre roll-out programme.

Anybody know what the 2nd app from the left on the top row is?



It can be seen on the new Sky Go advert promoting Sky Atlantic being added to the service.

[muppetman11]

The only app on the app store similar is Sky Guida TV (Sky Italia) could that be a play/ff type writing underneath where it says Sky.

I have not seen that app before, but then I only have 6 apps on my iPhone/iPad

The..............

Sky-go App
Sky+ App
Sky-Movies App
Sky-Sports App
Sky-Sports football App
Sky-Sports news App

Ooh its good to be a Sky customer. Does anyone know of a Sky-F1 App?

[muppetman11]

Sky F1 will be added to Sky Go along with Sky Living , Sky Arts and Sky One , I would imagine it will also get coverage on the Sky Sports news app.

It could be that I guess but it would be a strange inclusion when all the other apps are for bskyb. I thought it might have been a sneak peek at the SkyF1 app.

That's the best shot i could get during the advert advert, I don't recall seeing any writing within the app logo it looked more like a green trace line you'd get on a hospital heart monitor.

We'll have to wait and see , on the Sky F1 Q&A sky say there won't be a dedicated Sky Sports F1 app but it will be included on Sky Go and sky sports news app.

Ok, I've just searched BskyB apps on my ipad and I think that app is the "Team sky cycling" app or maybe the "Got to dance" app.

I think more likely the Team sky cycling app.

[muppetman11]

Just looked your right could possibly be Team Sky cycling.

Sky Tyne and wear

A new website has been launched by Sky for people in Tyne and Wear, providing them with local news, sport and events.
The pilot site employs a team of locally-based video journalists who aim to produce an in-depth view of life, local stories and sport, from top flight to lower league.
The service is also available on mobile tablets and smartphones.
In addition to the news generated locally, stories from Sky News and Sky Sports News with specific local interest will also be included.
Sky Tyne and Wear will give local people the opportunity to highlight news and events in their own area and provide a new platform for community engagement.
The website includes a listings section, where people can submit details of their own events, from family fun runs to local theatre productions.
Since plans for the pilot were announced last September, 13 journalists have been recruited and trained in filming, new media production and remote editing.
Simon Bucks, an associate editor at Sky News, said: "The launch of Sky Tyne and Wear provides a great opportunity to explore the possibility of creating a genuinely local news, sport and listings service.
"The team on the ground will dedicate themselves to covering the local news agenda, including community events and lower league football teams, as well as big events like the Great North Run, all subject to Sky’s high editorial standards.
"There is a famous sense of local pride in Tyne and Wear and we hope that the new service is well received by people here."
