Bad Bad person!

I’m probably the wrong person for this, seems nice and responsive at least.
I did note that not having a channel +/- button is annoying on the guide as you can’t flick down whole pages at once.
I’ll barely use it will ask My other halves opinion after a few days to see how she likes it compared to Q which we had before moving.

This remind me there is a coax socket on the back of this box, is that the same as the puck that Glass uses for multi room?It's never coming is it

That is a bit annoying actually. I know they are forcing/enticing everyone to use voice commands, but I hate talking to damn computers. It's not like star trek.

I signed up today as a new customer in the Meadowhall store, only had to pay £20 upfront so that’s nice. They don’t have the stream puck in store so it’s being delivered. Will be quite amusing if we all get it before TheOracle after he let us all know how to get it haha

Right keep this to yourself everyone, no posting on other forums. Not sure if it's a bug, but I've noticed I have all the channels on the sky go app. Sky Sports, BT Sports, Eurosports, Kids etc etc

I’m dying to see if the family sharing works across households lol.
It’s a very cheap bill of 5 people chip in. I wonder if you use sky go to get all the channels if you are a family account on sky stream.
Or maybe they going to get rid of sky go in favour of sky stream.

Sky go is still the mobile app for sky stream. I don't think they are making a new one. My parents are on holiday at the minute, but once they get back I'll try it.
Thinking about it, worst case they buy an appleTV and use the skygo app on it. It's still better than NowTV as it has more channels.

You get all the channels as a teaser, once your sub has been activated it will revert to your subscription level..
Hold the down button in the centre pad for 2 secs and it does the whole page down.

IT'S ARRIVED!!!!! Good old Sarah from DPD came just before 11am
Little gotcha....the remote only works in IR whilst you get setup. It then changes to WiFi. Since I'd installed the box behind the TV, I thought the remote was dead lol
Box is very fast, nice and smooth. It's got all the apps (Netflix, Prime, Disney, Apple, Paramount).
Your sky account is hardcoded to the box at sky. There's no account options to signout/signin.
Remote is backlit, nice!
WiFi did not pick up my 5ghz band, so connected to 2.4ghz. Maybe due to distance?
