Sky to replace 90,000 HD boxes

Thousands of Sky+ HD customers are to have their boxes replaced after a fault was discovered by manufacturer Pace.

Ninety-thousand people, about one in 10 HD customers, will be affected.

Sky says the fault involves the internal cabling and the quality of the connections between components but is not a safety risk.

Anyone affected is also being given three months' free subscription to Sky's HD pack, worth £29.25, when they have their box replaced.

Read the whole article here. While not directly IT, it does deal with technology and since there is a few of us here that has Sky/considering HD/have Sky HD (not me yet), thought this may be of interest

Compliment to GiddyG for the find
