.....so, that's corporate speak meaning no. If it did launch, one can only wonder what the "activation" fee would be.!

It was in the news a few years ago that Sky was launching a 8 tuner pvr, I wonder if that will ever see the light of day.

Dear Martin

Thanks you for your mail which Neil has asked me to answer on his behalf.
Your email comes at a great time as Virgin Media has just completed agreements to launch the new HD channels from UKTV . I'm really pleased to say that we'll be adding them to our HD channel line-up as soon as we possibly can. - We're still in discussion with UKTV about the precise technical details re timing, but our aspiration is to launch at the same time as Sky or as soon as possible after.

Kind regards
Peter

How many times do you need to keep posting those tweets/emails about HD channels? They will come eventually stop obsessing over it and get on with your daily life before you know it new channels will have arrived.
