Now you are trying to put words in my mouth , I've never claimed the V6 has been rushed out quite the opposite it seems a nice hardware upgrade.

My point is some of the V6 early adopters are experiencing the teething problems that those early adopters of Sky Q and the Youview next gen UI did.

Whether the V6 launched on its scheduled date has fewer, more or about the same number of bugs as Sky Q launched in advance of its original scheduled release date I can't say.
Why would that make a difference UHD football only launched in August 16 anyway. The Telegraph talked about Sky Q as early as July 15 and speculated then an announcement could come within weeks.

As for problems as I've said the V6 seems a good box my point was teething problems are to be expected with all new technology. Both boxes are a huge upgrade and now offer true multiroom flexibility.
