How many actually fulfil the orders....

I think all existing customers should get a very healthy first box discount if they sign up to the UHD service.
I dont think they will just launch these and say £400 or you don't get one. That would be utterly stupid. They'll have some plan in mind to get a quick take up.

Maybe getting enquiries online and over the phone , but soon as the prices are announced i think it will put a lot of customers of , i cannot see it being cheap
We couldn't get enough boxes when HD launched in 2006 despite the boxes being £299.

I paid £50 for the UHD box from BT.

Much more interested in the new Hub for broadband than the tv boxes. We just joined sky and have a communal dish with only one signal into the tv box anyway. But desperate for a new AC/dual band router.
I just hope it works with ADSL as well as fibre as we can’t get fibre in our flat! Oh and the price isn’t too steep of course!

The features looks good but people, don't you pay enough for your Sky subscription already for a bunch of unnecessary channels, long adverts, repeats and you want to pay more?!?!?!?!? 
On a side note, many of those features you can easily do yourself if you are willing to spend time setting it up and downloading software.

Many people want a 'one stop' solution or are completely unaware such options exist.
No chance - there are never any good offers for existing customers, why change that!
No chance at all on discounts out the gate on this, I'll be happy to be proved wrong but they'll hold out for full price on this.
Someone asked on twitter if Sky Broadband was required. Works with any broadband, but Sky Fibre was recommended... surprise that.
The wireless hotspot capability along with the Powerline options only work with the Sky Hub Q, that's why they recommend Sky Fibre. Much like On Demand when it launched it may be limited to Sky Broadband initially.
Can't see that happening as someone will have to pay for those lovely new offers coming up for new customers.

It looks good, as a Virgin customer one of my biggest complaints is the recordings are downstairs and it is rare for me to watch tv. But if I have access to them remotely.
I did think this had not been done before as it may cannibalise second box sales.

so what is the content that sky are offering in 4k?
No I didn't get in yet sadly. The trial was quite limited, at most a few dozen boxes. I'm hoping the trial starts to ramp up now and I certainly hope to get on it.
Nothing confirmed regarding 4k content as yet but the current rumour is in time for the Premier League kick off next August. I'm not even sure if it'll be a Movies channel and a Sports channel or what!

Only really worth a sub if there's channels for everything, sports, movies, docs etc.
I would love a 4K Sky Atlantic channel.
