Different times!
My two local ones are different - Blackwater at 8am, Farnham at 9am - good if you miss out on a bargain. You get a second chance!

Farnham has also been 8am for several weeks now.

Just got 2 of these. Absolutely packed at the Plymouth store, people pushing each other out of the way for them. The 'helpful' member of staff told several people these things weren't in until Thursday, I had to tell him otherwise!

Just got one of these.. Had hundreds at the Swindon branch.

Looks ok, working fine on my tv.. Will try to get it working on an Xbox and NTL box later.

Went and got one this morning from the Erdington store (Birmingham). Had loads in silver didnt see any black ones. There didnt seem to be that much of a rush for them, people seemed more interested in the £39.99 sewing machines.
Have managed to set it up for my TV, DVD/VCR and Sky box but cant seem to get there with my stereo. Its an Aiwa midi system. Or does it only work with hi-fi seperates? If anyone knows, please tell me.

You can get a 9-1 remote from Poundland for - yes you guessed it - 1 pound.

Unsure on quality - but for a quid, can't go wrong.

Having trouble setting mine up for sky. I can't get the 'move right' buttton to work (the one to the right of the 'ok' button). Up, down, and left work fine. Can't get it to learn it either. Do I have a faulty one?

...if you want a door stop Many of these things are seriously useless. Sounds like the Lidl one is not.

Has anybody been able to teach the remote to control an xbox or NTL (Pace) cable tv box?

I get 'success' when learning the xbox control, but always 'failed' when learning the NTL box, however, the Xbox one doesnt work once done.

It works fine on my TV and Satellite receiever, so I guess its worth holding on it.

Cheltenham Store had load in yesterday, shame they didnt have any projector alarm clocks, which is what I went in for> Didnt buy a remote myself as this site has tempted me tooooo much in the past with parting with cash for a baragin, now Im trying self control.
