We're on a Eurovox and don't have an official box (internet only package) so unable to check if we're on 3_7 yet.

All 3 of my boxes have been rescaned checked the encription and it's now on nag3
you can tell aswell, there's a 2 second delay for the channels to come on.
As the coder has said it's just waiting for the cards, if I get through April I'll be over the moon.

Card received in Dundee.....dam it!

It may be a blessing in disguisse no more watching pointless programs and constant channel hopping for me......although footy was great and live events......

Will there be a solution for N3 in the near future? or should scrap my ex5000 and put the 120gb hd to better use?

Crystal ball says no. Even if there is, it'd be pointless if you want "free cable" because VM are moving to an IPTV based service

The IPTV will only really be an extension to the present system. Its just an alternative way of deliverng VOD or NVOD TV. The standard linear channels will continue for a good while yet

Think other areas has been about 2 weeks from cards to Nagg3d
All dodgy boxes will be affected , including virgin boxes with edited cards
