Re: PVR release dates
Just how out of date are the Teleport / On Demand previews on ch109?
Look closely at the Keane music competition which is part of the loop, the closing date is 31st July 2006.

The main advantage is that you can record/watch up to 3 NTL channels, in digital quality, all at once. It also lets you watch HD channels.
With a DVD recorder you can only record the one NTL channel you are watching, in analogue - just like a standard VCR.

Re: PVR release dates
Dunno if the December availability date for Coventry is accurate - after spending 20 minutes on the phone, I've been told that I had been 'misinformed' and that TV Drive won't be available in Coventry until January.

Re: PVR release dates
I spoke to CS on Saturday and they also said January for Coventry 
Spoke to the roadshow in town last week, who gave so much incorrect information I didn't know whether to laugh?!
He said:
1. Telewest are launching it at the moment, NTL will be launching it next year
2. It will only cost an extra fiver a month
3. It will record over 300 hours worth of programmes
When I corrected him on point 1, he admitted that I probably knew more about it than him

Re: PVR release dates
Hi All,
Just rang NTL customer services, and asked for a pre-release booking for Northampton. They said that the release date had moved from 12th to 14th Dec and that I should call back to book a visit a couple of days after that. Oh well seems I wont have this in before Christmas, as by then I will have used all my holiday up.
