Sky 1TB box
May 7, 2010
As some of you may have heard Sky is releasing a 1TB Sky+HD box. This is supposedly available in the UK at the moment and while we see the box on our Internet Card Order system, we have not seen supply of the boxes. See below for an article from last January when it was announced in the UK.

Sky Anytime
May 6, 2010
While browsing lately I came across this article, it’s basically about a new Sky Anytime feature that opens up the complete Sky catalog of programming by connecting the Sky box to a broadband connection via the Ethernet socket on the back of the box.

While I admire and applaud steps towards Video On Demand I’m left pondering how we are going to get a customer to connect their box to an RJ45 cable when most don’t want to connect their box to a phone line? I think a wireless add-on will be the way to sell this.
