The HSV range isn't really going to be launched tommorow, is it? I thought it would detract a bit too much from the rest of the VE range, i would think it would be launched in a few weeks. If it is launched tommorow though, it would be great still.

Watch it, as if it sits there too long, it will go straight onto the next program on the playlist.
