It would be good if VM announced details of this at the launch party on March 30th.
It may help reduce initial installation demand, as some people would wait for the 500 gig drive, VM would loose out on some revenue though.

We are only awareof the one box at present as no other box has been mentioned and if the is one I would be surprised if it was launched straight away as it may take the shine from the main box.

I tend to agree with that. It's a case of wheather, if VM announce a new box in a few months time, at, if rumours are right, a much lower price, will they get flack from customers who would have waited for a cheaper option? I don't know.

Not sure I agree with that. I find that a lot of the good quality content even on the FTA channels are generally shown in the 8/9/10pm slots. Not at all unlikely that 3 tuners are in use especially if you pad your recordings.

Re: £3.00 Tivo Charge
You'd be surprised how much 3 tuners gets used.. Mine have all 3 lights on quite often - if I'm not recording it uses the extra to find suggestions.

It's already been mention in the main TiVo thread that this smaller box has appeared in this months VM magazine, so it is out in the open. The email another member received from the CEOs office also spoke about this new TiVo box with a release date of 'Spring'.

Re: £3.00 Tivo Charge
I'll pay the £3 a month, as I think Tivo will be worth it. However, with my new contract I'll be dropping some Sky premium channels that I rarely watch. That will keep my wife happy.

Re: £3.00 Tivo Charge
Is it £3 a month irrespective of what you have? The email implies that it's a different cost on different packages.

It may have been mentioned but that is as far as it goes regards any more information as the main emphasis will be on the main box.
