What you have heard is rubbish just like all your other posts you put up. I think everyone on here is getting fed up as we keep telling you on every post that there will be no box without internet.

Sorry to sound a bit harsh but everyone keeps telling you.

I've been trying to 'workout' the internet for years. Still can't get my head around it.

I think what this forum's educationally-challenged member is perhaps referring to is the new TIVO-based box which has a dedicated internet connection.

Yes, i'm sure thats what is being discussed. The box should be available to specially selected VM customers shortly for extended testing and will likely be available early next year for the rest.

The box has its own dedicated modem (so wont interfere with your broadband) which will allow it to download stuff from VM's rapidly expanding vod library onto a hard drive from where it can then be played back. The modem should also be quick enough to stream HD video in real-time for those that dont want to have to wait for a download to HDD.

I'm sure there's more details of the box/service on the VM website somewhere but, as usual, its impossible to actually find anything on that particular site !
