How does this prove that sky monitor this forum

All it shows to me is that 2 people had the same idea or wanted the same question answered and the second one didn't do a search to see that it had already been done.

Or am I missing something ???

It's a bit of a stretch of the imagination that mate.

Anyway Sky have not released the price yet, the £299 is not much more than well informed speculation as far as I can tell.

No he definitely hasn't. And you won't make any friends on these forums by making those sort of allegations.

It was a question, not an allegation, as evidenced by the question mark at the end.

Lighten up.

And the most skewed! Most companies i the AV world monitor the forum for one reason or another just like most monitor auction sites too (but only the brave ones publically post!)

I am not protesting, I just don't see how two polls that happen to be the same prove the OP, just checking that I hadn't missed something

No I have not, if I were in that kind of posistion I would know how much the HD box will be and when it will be launched and I don't !! Gosh was that someone saying he doesn't know when it will be launched and how much it will cost - shock horror

I think I will start a new thread "I don't know how much SkyHD will be or when it will be launched" - should make for a refreshing change.

I have to say I should have started this thread with a smiley.

I didn't mean for anyone to take it seriously.
