And you're lecturing me about being rude? It seems that once again you
want to have it both ways - freedom to be insulting as well as freedom
not to address the point.

My comment was perfectly clear. If you can't read what was written
then that is your problem. Being unable to read what is written can
only be described as incompetence (def: the inability to do something
properly). Incompetence is not an insult: it is a state of being.

Then let your posturing stand as its own evidence of your double
standards. :-)

I've returned some of the context to this thread.

If so it is an out-and-out lie. Updates are exclusively performed on
air.

===end previously snipped

Got it on screen in front of me right now.

"Sky regularly upgrades the software in your sky+ box via your phone line,
allowing us to continuously improve your sky+ experience."

Fine. It is indeed an out and out lie. There is not one jot of truth
in it. Not one.


Glad to hear it, I didn't believe that Sky would use wording like that
on their customer channel, so your confirmation that this is indeed a
lie is most welcome.


Re-read my post. You have missed the point yet again. My comment
clearly referred to the message on the screen.


It also implied, due to the quote from, IIRC, 'No-one' that this was on
channel 999. If you would like people not to miss the point, then please
cite sources.

I said further up the thread that it was from channel 999 on the interactive
service.
