UPDATE: YouView Delays Launch Due To Project Scale, Complexity

Today : Wednesday 9 February 2011
YouView, a joint venture that will bring Internet content and new video-on-demand to U.K. television, Wednesday delayed its launch by six months due to the scale and complexity of the project, as widely expected.

YouView will have a product in trial by the end of 2011 with a full consumer launch planned in early 2012. The group had previously flagged a launch in the first half of 2011.

"Our focus has always been to deliver a product to consumers that is right, but not rushed," YouView Chief Executive Richard Halton said in a statement.

"Creating a truly open TV platform that will bring consumers increased choice has required significant technological innovation. Our timings for the launch reflect the scale and complexity of this project," he added.

YouView is a collaboration between the BBC, Itv PLC (ITV.LN), Bt Group PLC (BT.A.LN), Five, Channel 4, TalkTalk Telecom Group PLC (TALK.LN) and Arqiva Ltd.

YouView, which was previously known as Project Canvas, also confirmed that it will soon publish its core technical specifications for launch, which have required "significant technological innovation as well as industry engagement to create a TV platform, based on common standards."

U.K. communications regulator Ofcom in October ruled out an investigation into YouView, despite opposition from several parties including Virgin Media Inc. (VMED) and British Sky Broadcasting Group PLC (BSY).

News Corp. (NWS), which owns Dow Jones & Co., the publisher of this newswire, owns roughly 39% of BSkyB.

YouView set-top boxes, which will come with a built in personal video recorder, will be available for a one-off payment of up to GBP200 but may also be offered at special rates as part of broadband bundles.

12 month high today.

Looking at 2 quid - although volume fairly light.

alternatively wait for move above 204sh with 14 point risk or Less, Much Less, and reward 36sh points, maybe more longer term?
please all dyor.

I still following mitzy 10p prediction :-)

LoL Dil, i take it you are short then?
i dont see it as top just yet because price movement is pretty boring (which i like) and i associate tops with larger swinging volatility in price ranges.just my opinion of course.
and i am often wrong.
can anyone confirm the true traded high for today? MAM show it as 206.4.
is that correct? anyone?
thanks and regards to all
jkd

No not short mate I just love mitzy's mood changes ... 10p one minute and a fiver next with justifiable reasons :-)

blimey Dil that was quick.
MAM have changed their data high to a different and hopefully correct figure of
200.60. good for them to have responded so quickly at such a late hour.
i knew you werent short ;-)

jkd

Waiting for a dip.

have just looked at MAM bar chart.price appears to have made a spike high at 210.65 and closed below its opening price of 203.8.
to me that reads very bearish.unfortunately(or fortunately maybe) i am not convinced that the spike high is accurate data.
