Hi Steve. Unfortunately I cant get Virgin in my home, I live in a street which Virgin will not cable due to it only having 21 properties including a block of flats, it simply isn’t economical for them to do. Also, you don't get nearly as much content as you do with Sky, the premium movies for instance, you only get about half the selection of sky channels on the VM platform. If I’m wrong, let me know and I’ll move straight away *smile*. All the best, Ibrahim.

I heard it said that the Virgin box wasn’t accessible, perhaps they have a similar remote control app for their kit? I cant wait to get set up, my support worker will be over in a matter of moments to help me set the darn stuff up as I’ve changed routing equipment since I last used the sky box and wireless adaptor. All the best, Ibrahim.

Getting my VM tivo box on sat, really looking forward to seeing how good it is! as an aside, when I phoned to order my tivo box I got my package for £5 cheaper with a upgrade to 60mb internet so well pleased here! alistair tvo From: Ibrahim Gucukoglu Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2012 9:04 AM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Sky Plus update Hi Everyone. For those of you who are IPhone, IPod or IPad users, make sure to download the new Sky Plus app. The update includes the ability to completely control your sky box if you have it connected to your home router either using a cable or via the wireless adaptor kit purchasable from the Sky online shop. I’m going to be testing this out this morning and will report back hopefully some time today, however if the update proves accessible, this could be the breakthrough or potentially be so that we’ve been looking for in accessibility to Sky Plus HD with regards managing the planner and viewing recorded programs etc.. All the best, Ibrahim.
