    Looks promising. I assume "some" of the boxes means only the newer UPC-branded ones (Thomson, etc.)?

    Also, TV3 in HD? :D

    It's an example TV3 in HD:D:D:D:D:D.

    Yes the UPC branded boxes those old NTL boxes will need to be replaced I guess.

    Much better screenshots then the ones posted last month. I notice TV3 is listed as HD. It also allows search and clicks to a CatchUP TV Service....exciting....

    From an SiliconRepublic.com article in 2009
    "Next year we will introduce another layer of innovative digital TV technology by introducing video-on-demand so our customers can access catch up TV and a wide choice of library material from their favourite channels."

    Link

    I completely missed that announcement last year. The catch up service sounds kinda nice.

    Hope the new interface is quicker and more responsive. Its a pain compared to the SKY one.

    I'm surprised more people don't notice this and complain about it.
