Outrageous.

You might recall tortise posted the freeview pvr specs a weekor two back.
It includes this:

9.11  NETWORK
INTERFACE
PVRs are required to provide a broadband network
interface supporting TCP/IP, to Support the MHEG
interaction channel Extensions and ICStreaming
Extensions
Req  Ethernet or IEEE 802.11
The network interface shall adhere to
the content management usage rules
as defined in section 6.2 in the
Transmission Rules Document

I suspect that will be the delivery mechanism as bandwidth is pretty
limited in the available spectrum.
