The Virgin TV 360 Mini box is the same hardware as the 360 box without the hard disk, offering a smaller second or third box for the home.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this it may seem strange that, from launch later this year, existing customers who choose to upgrade to Virgin TV 360 will have their current V6 box swapped out for a Virgin TV 360 box and mini box.
