RE: OT Sky

Michael,

A couple of points both relating to auto phone calls.

1. Does TiVo let you call in from an Irish phone number ?
2. A UK Sky subscription also uses a UK number for interactive use. This
was
not a show stopper before but I have a second subscription and was
recently
written to saying they would cancel the subscription because it was not
connected to the phone... The obviously check from time to time now.

Subject: [ukha_d] OT Sky

having just moved from the UK to Ireland (South) I am now considering my
TV
options.

The cable systems are local, very limited and unreliable so my only
sensible
choice seems to be Sky.

My choice is between getting an Irish sky system or a UK one. I
understand
that a UK system would mean buying a subs paid box and having a
subscription
at a UK address for the viewing card.

This raises a few questions......

1 are the line ups of programs the same? I have a tivo so this is
important.

2 what channels would I miss by going for UK rather than Irish sky
service
or vice versa?

3 does anyone know of any suppliers of kosher subscription free sky
digiboxes at reasonable prices ...best I can find are 300 - 350 ukp

sorry this is off topic but I know the list has a number of satellite
nuts
and some people in Eire who may be able to help.

Thanks
Mick
