they obviously have far better uses to fritter away their millions on.
they're a complete waste of space when it comes to accessibility

I'm not a sky customer any more, so please correct me on any errors below
but, I showed sky the talking Freeview box around the time tvonix were going
out of business, as I had just left sky after purchasing one. I said they
might want to adapt the box for their use and save a small company to
produce accessible sky boxes using the talking platform, but no, tvonix went
bust, and I fear, reading Steve's post below that sky have done little more
than make iPhone apps rather than make their boxes any more accessible three
years on. I now use an iPhone, and could take advantage of that
functionality if I went back to sky, but, in my opinion they should make
their boxes talk, after all, they have the money, and the concept has been
provenby the tvonix , so r and d would be a small pittance.

Hi all
Sky have a new level of accessibility for their Sky box and on-screen
menu’s. You can now increase contrast and font size.
Cheers
