Namesco Starts tvMax Pre-Registration
Posted: 27th Mar, 2006 By: MarkJ
ISP Namesco has responded to "huge initial demand" for its broadband TV (tvMax) service by allowing potential subscribers to pre-register their interest immediately:
From today, visitors to http://www.tvMax.co.uk can register their interest to be amongst the first users of the new service, which officially launches on 28th April in the UK. The tvMax products come bundled with a broadband connection up to 8Mb, ZyXel Modem Router and iPlayer and start from just £25.95 per month. Subscribers to tvMax will have access to over 50 digital TV and radio channels, and can pause, rewind and record live TV at the touch of a button.
The service brings the digital lifestyle to the living room, with the ability to access music, videos and photos from either a connected PC, the home network or the Internet. You can also access email, the web and download Podcasts through the tvMax portal with new services planned for later in the year, including Catch-up TV.
Namesco has taken the decision to allow pre-registration in order to ensure that sufficient hardware stocks are available to meet the large initial demand for the service. Namesco's Product Development and Marketing Manager James Griffin commented "Whilst we predicted high demand for this unique service; allowing users to pre-register their interest helps us to ensure that initial orders are fulfilled without delay. Following the 28th April launch, the first subscribers will receive their hardware delivery from the 3rd May, and we are committed to achieving this."
It's unclear exactly what constitutes "huge" demand, although we look forward to seeing how Namesco copes with such a different product.
