Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Another question for you guys is about Sky 3D.

I know when I was last on here there was talk of a couple of new 3D channels dedicated to Movies and Sports, has anything else been announced about this?

That suggest to me that 3D is what it is a niche product at best and at worse a passing fad.

Glad to see that you're still about Den, I take it you haven't made the move across to Sky yet?

Nice to know that you are still around Doz and as for me moving over to Sky well the master did send forth thy legions but alas he did not train them very well and l sent them forthwith scurrying back towards the masters mighty black gates of hell.

The 2TB box has just been launched, what is the price for existing customers?

Do we know anymore about the shared planner functionality - release dates, UI screenshots or videos of it in action?

I know the iPad app has been updated - does this include planner management & Zeebox integration?

Sorry for all the questions but I've got a lot of news to catch up on!
There's a video now in the showcase section of On Demand titled Sky+ gets better showing the new features including iPad app.
