    Mentioned in two pieces in the Telegraph:

    The whole of BT’s consumer unit is now gearing up for the big push in summer, when it will launch a new set-top box to allow ultra-high definition football coverage.

    In contrast to Sky’s wait-and-see attitude to 4K, it is understood that BT aims to introduce the technology on BT Sport within months. It is also poised to launch a new set-top box and mount a major marketing push in spring.

    If the reports are accurate, and a 4K box really is to be launched this summer, is it a YouView box, I wonder, and will it be built by Humax? Or a shiny new NetGem box, maybe?
