I heard there may be some work happening on this talker but don't know any
more. Just a random rumour to throw into the melting pot.
I've always felt it was more of a side project from interested people within
Sky rather than a core Sky product but I've got nothing to back that notion up
with. From our point of view, the frustrating thing is that not enough time or
research is going into it if the current product and the time delays are
anything to go by. But let's see.
I heard that RNIB had a go at extracting the data from the Sky menus and EPG to
see what sense it made and if it could be worked on for accessibility. I
believe the answer came back that they would need to first change the way they
output the data to everybody, before they can then start to make it accessible.
Or maybe I'm remembering it all wrong. Still, it's something to talk about
isn't it.

Hi Jeff
Have you checked with local independent sat dealers in your area for a Sky
standard box?
