I heard it'll be installed by Santas Little Helper who will also be
involved in creating the new improved services subscribers are
being charged in advance for but will probably never see...but
that'll have to wait till after the xmas rush !

YAWN.

we've had this on digital spy forums for months, where people have spoke to
someone in the know and date has passed.

latest one is next year.

basically believe NO one from sky or anyone that has spoke to someone from
sky.

S

psst he's probably nothing to do with sky and just contracted out by sky to
install dishes.

Just to Clarify,

I was on to sky themselves about a suggestion I had for them. They put me on
to some development manager who seemed to be fairly high up and really in
the know. After taking to him for about 20 minutes I asked him a by the way
about DR and he said that he had signed off on it last week and that the
software pack was currently being bundled to be ready for download on
Thursday. Most users should have it in a couple of days.

With only two days to go, I would keep quiet about this rumour of dual
recording software on Thursday. Then I would be wise and sarcastic after
Thursday morning, Paul and Sima. This way I wouldn't have to apologise for
my possible incorrect smugness,
Joe

It's March 2004 actually!

The DR Software has finally been finished by Sir Clive on his Spectrum after
getting a 16K Ram pack ;-)
Sky donated him the 50p they promised are finally making a profit on all
those exta 10 quid subs since Sky+ arrived on the shelves.

Upgrade December 2004 (When Sky's target of *bums on seats for Sky+* has
been reached) will be disabling F/forwarding through Ad breaks on Sky+
recordings.
