Tuesday, 14 June 2005

 

We've just received this press release... "Capitalising on the massive success of the iPlayer+ and the PhantomPVR in their own fields, Netgem and Bluedelta Design have teamed up to bring you the next generation of freeview functionality.

The iPlayer+ already combines all the elements of a high-end terrestrial receiver; 7-day EPG (Electronic Program Guide), TopUp TV ready, advanced interactive services, multiple AV outputs, and the additional functionality of a home entertainment system and communications centre.

Current viewers are free to do whatever they want - whether it be watching one of over 30 freeview digital terrestrial channels, listening to a digital radio station, using e-mail and surfing the web, sending and receiving SMS text messages via their TV*, or even streaming MP3 files and JPEG images from a PC located in a different part of the house**.

Bluedelta now enhances the functionality of the iPlayer+ with the addition of the PHANTOM+ - an add-on accessory which works with the iPlayer+ 7-day EPG letting you plan your viewing and record your programs automatically. The PHANTOM+ works with the video recording device of your choice to automatically record programs, taking away the hassle of programming multiple devices and failed recordings.

Just as the iPlayer+ is designed with the future in mind, the PHANTOM+ is future-proof, allowing you to change recording device whenever you like. The PHANTOM+ enables you to keep up with the latest technology as it learns from your recorder's handset - rather than using an internal database, meaning it is never out of date.

Utilising unique iPlayer+ technology, the PHANTOM+ enhances the iPlayer+'s position as the entertainment centre for the house. No longer will users be bothered by time-consuming programming on multiple video recording devices - they are now free to set one device to control all others, making this freeview box the ideal companion for everyone from the tech-savvy to the average viewer.

Netgem and BlueDelta are leading the way in utilizing current technology to create the ultimate FreeToDo Freeview box - making your life easier one feature at a time.

* Additional services supplied by your phone operator. iPlayer+ is ready to receive these services upon activation

** Additional hardware required"
