It's been a long time coming but it should be updated in a couple of months time

 

[Hixxey]

Liking the search feature. Will make things much easier

 

[Revels]

Will Sky+ get an update, too?

Apparently not.

 

[Daz]

Hmm, looks OK.
Will have to see I guess.

 

[Brown.]

lol^ sky + is minion tv

 

[Adam]

Looks good

Wonder if they'll ever make "now and next work correctly". That's my biggest gripe!

Foxtel (Newscorps australian pay tv server) works correctly, you highlight a program in "now and next" and it gives you the information about the highlighted programme.

On sky pressing information gives you information about what you're currently watching, not what you've selected. Means you have to go into the bloody EPG to find out information!

Thirded!

Are there any good deals on Sky+ HD yet? Or is it still one million million?

I'm hoping FreeSat is going to drive the price down.

 

[Rasclart]

Still a lot. I wish I hadnt bothered LOL. Never really watch the HD shizzle

 

[Daz]

Sky HD is awesome.

Although, I do watch WWE (which is always in HD) and Football (Premiership is always HD) so worth it for me.

Also get Road Wars on Sky One HD, some stuff on BBC HD, and stuff like that, so it is worth the £10 a month I reckon.

 

[Chris n nic]

I have no probs with the £10 a month...its the fact that they still charge daft amounts for the box....if it had been more reasonable I would have got one ages ago and they would have made the money back on the couple of years subscription...I'm not paying £40+ a month for years and then paying daft money to get HD of them as well

[Craig]

^^ hear hear

A decent search function will be a godsend.

I had the Hatton fight in HD. Awsome.

There's fair amount of decent HD content these days. Plus it really shows off a good screen

 

[Gareth]

I've got a HD screen, but I can't justify £10 a month for a few channels in HD, if all channels were HD I'd pay it.

 

[Nigel]

I'm glad i've gone down the HD route. New scheme looks pretty cool.

New to sky can get the HD box for £99 now.

Has anyone used the new layout for remote record via the internet? Thats absolutely brilliant now.

 

[Chris n nic]

£99 is fine...we (hopefully) will be moving house and the original SKy was in Nics name...I'll just start again with them and hopefully get the better deal

SKY HD is great and I'm very glad I made the purchase. Alot more channels than when i first got it now too. If your a football fan its worth it just for that.

Like the look of the EPG...

 

[Saundo]

If you moan long enough sky will let you have a hd box for a lot less than £199
