Bromley Upgrade.

Just wondering if its began to roll out yet to other places other than York?

As I seem to remember everyone saying it would begin near the end of August?

Re: Bromley Upgrade.

Oxford's not part of the Bromley network -- it's Langley 3.2 that's been downloaded there.

GSXF: The new software has also gone out in the Wearside franchise (Sunderland and the surrounding area). No news on any further rollouts yet -- I guess they're waiting to see if there are any problems.

Re: Bromley Upgrade.

Hmm. They'll want to get all of Bromley done before the end of the year, I suspect, which means getting it done before December -- there is a "freeze" in place over the Christmas period so that NTL don't risk breaking anything.

It's also a big change -- far bigger than the Langley 3.1 to 3.2 upgrades that are happening at the moment. That means lots of people calling in going "why is my TV guide blue?". That means they'll want to space out the rollout so that the load on the call centres is even.

My money is on the second week of Sepetember. You heard it here first!

(NB this is pure speculation. I don't work for NTL and have no idea about their real plans!)
