SkyQ What some may of missed,
 

So everyone seems to be aware of the SkyQ Siliver 2Tb, The SkyQ 1Tb and the SkyQ mini. But what about the SkyQ Hub? Does this mean only those of us with SkyBB will be able to have SkyQ?

Assuming the SkyQ Hub replaces the Sr101/102. Scroll down on the link below an see the SkyQ hub is the only way SkyQ boxes can communicate.

I also received an email yesterday telling me I will be one of the first to "discover the freedom of fluid viewing" an I have an exclusive invitation which will sent to me as soon as Sky-Q is available to order.

Has anyone NOT on Sky broadband received this Email? (Just curious)

Re: SkyQ What some may of missed,
 

The Sky Q box looks like it supports both WiFi and Ethernet - so there doesn't seem to be a technical block to using it with other broadband providers.

However it's possible that the built in Powerline option may be specific to the Sky Q Hub

It's also possible that to control the initial launch experience, Sky Q may be restricted to Sky Broadband customers and require the Sky Q Hub.

No they way I read it is that the Hub is the new Sky BB router and will communicate with all your Q equipment, however if you have a Sky Q Silver and say 2 Q minis they will communicate with each other by WiFi or ethernet and will use your 'home broadband' for online stuff no matter what broadband you have.

Its possible the WiFi extender feature may only work with Sky BB, but that hopefully won't be the case.

Edit from the explore page

So I don't think you need Sky BB to get Sky Q but only if you have sky BB will you be able to use the hotspot features of the boxes.
