Probably, but you will be able to make an educated choice of which one you would prefer to have. Surely this is a good thing?

Of all the traning and literature received with regards to the training and roll out have only ever feature a 1TB HDD STB.

When the first build (alpha) boxes arrived the startup was 57 minutes, thats the time from the engineer plugging it in to the Stb being full working. Since then having had software upgrades and hardware upgrades the time is now down to 18 mins!!

Re: TiVo

Wonder what the chances are Virgin taking 3 monthly payments for the box rather than the quoted prices?
Did have the money but it would seem SWMBO wanted goods for the garden. Will they ever learn!
