OK, not avaialble in Singapore, but just seen a cool gizmo on Sky Sports website. If you have Sky+ or Sky+HD, i.e. a hard drive recorder, it's possible to look at the website and remote record a show!

Cool or what. I want one!

Similar facility is available (and works) to owners of Beyonwiz PVRs. It allows web access to all the PVRs timers, etc. Also enables the PVR to display weather and other web content on the TV.

Sounds good if it's also linked in with the online program schedule. Sitting at work, see something on you like, log in and click the button. It's what I want!

Although I haven't tried it, vista media center gives you options for this as well. Here's one of them:
