Im intrested in getting one WHEN IT EVENTUALLY ARRIVES lol, but i was just reading the specs on the thing and ive noticed that it has an "anologue" modem built in. Please could someone tell me if this is only gona be for the sat version or are we gona have a talkback on the cable?, Im 99% sure its only for the sat version but if its included in the c version then its something i will have to think about as i dont want to really be performing surgery on a brand new dreambox.
thanks
 
I wouldn't worry about it too much mate.

A standard modem can't talk through a cable feed.

You won't be connecting it up to a telephone line anyway, even if you did there would be nothing programmed into the dreambox to tell it what to report back, nor do Virgin have a server for it to talk to.
