I am one step ahead, I have subbed v+ box downstairs, already gone to xl package, and have had a second box delivered for upstairs, so when it happens (Manchester), I am not one of the 20,000 ring for a second box to be fitted. I had three week wait as it was to get the 2nd box, 35 quid to fit, then 5 quid a month. I recon there will be a big rush when it happens, peeps who didnt have any box will want one fitted, peeps who just had broad band will want one fitted, and peeps who modded there original box will want a new one fitted lol.

Yup I suspect VM have probably reckoned that everyone currently getting channels for free will pay for them once N3 is fully implemented.

They've not thought that maybe we only watch (or not) the sh1t cos it's free, and that if any of us do watch it and are forced into paying... we'd get it from SKY who offer a cheaper package with better HD support.
