Re: Will V+ blow me away?
I think it depends on what you're used to. As others have said the V+ box up-scales SD pictures so the difference between them and HD is not as marked as what it could be. This may result in people thinking the HD pictures are not all that impressive.

However I remember when I first viewed some stuff in HD and was blown away with the detail. As I'm used to a good quality picture now I don't get quite the same 'wow' factor as I have done in the past but I really notice the difference when I watch a SD picture around other people's who don't have the V+ box or have an LCD TV connected via Scart.

Again as others have said once you have the PVR function that the V+ brings you won't be able to imagine TV without it.

Definitely go for it in my book...
