Not forgetting when the bugs have been fixed you will also be able to see how much disk space future recordings will be. The colours and fonts are the same as the Sky+ app phone

Re: New Sky Guide Beta - Your thoughts and issues.

That's something that I couldn't believe was missing when I joined Sky so it's nice to see that they've got it in the EPG nice and quickly.

Thats dependant on which version of the Sky+HD box you have , once beta testing is complete I believe it's to be delivered to the Amstrad 1 TB boxes and Amstrad DRX890 boxes then the remainder at a later date with Thomson being the exception as these are not compatible.
