Thanks for being honest.
When I pre registered, I got an email saying I'd be one of the first to get TIVO.
Any day now then!

Re: TiVo
What's to get about TIVO it's a new box far more advanced than maybe the current batch of PVR's but come on Ben you dont need a masters degree to operate it or get the whole concept.

2011 trust me I had this info relayed to me from the executives office , he said 20000 had pre registered , 5000 would get it soon and the remainder would be end of March - start of April then eventually open to everybody so I wouldn't hold your breath for a call just yet. He also said the pre reg were being picked at random.

Re: TiVo
I do think this first roll out was poorly organised and unfair on the long term loyal customers who have been early adopters of most kit over the years... £50/m for 512k broadband anyone + £150 for the modem?
From what I gather this has been done with an autodialler picking numbers from random out of the lists of people who registered interest whether they've been with VM one month or 15 years.
