Can't you use a netgem top box for Sky. Ditto if you're on telewest. Or is the netgem top box only good for freeview and freeview alone? Peter From beautiful Helensburgh on the Firth of Clyde.

I believe that it's easy enough to fast forward and rewind using the remote control, but how easy is it to select programmes to record and then select them for playback later? It's all driven from on-screen visual menus isn't it? Please can anyone explain the ease/difficulty of use to help me decide if it's worth going for it. Also, I've read somewhere on the internet that Sky are to bring out an accessible version of Sky Plus, but when I phoned Sky's disability line, they didn't know anything about it. Has anybody else heard anything? If it's true, then I'll wait for that, but if it's rumour I could be waiting for ever.
