As we predicted yesterday Telewest has today announced the official launch of its TVDrive hard disk video recorder/HDTV decoder.
According to the release the device is now available to four million homes with viewers signing up via Currys, Dixons or through Telewest.
It costs users £15 per month on top of lower tier packages, or £10 a month if they subscribe to Telewest's top level TV package.
Telewest has also hinted that it might actually sell the boxes, which incidentally are made by Scientific Atlanta, at some point in the future. We’ve written loads about the device before so comb through this section for more details. A review of the HDTV services is here too.

Just got the Telewest drive but cannot get it running on my JVC LT-37DS6B. Anyone got any ideas?
I get a brief glimpse of what looks like coloured lines across a black screen - it as if the JVC is attempting to show me something! - then it goes to the default bluescreen that is shown when no signal is there.
Really appreciate any form of assistance!
