YouView to miss Olympics deadline

Public trials will start this week for YouView, the UK’s much-delayed connected TV platform, according to reports in the Financial Times, which appear to confirm that the platform will miss its launch deadline of the London 2012 Olympics.
The report adds that an alpha trial of around 350 homes outside London has been agreed by YouView’s board, with the trialists selected to reflect a broad viewing audience.
If the alpha tests are successful, thousands more YouView-compatible set-top boxes could be arriving in homes after as little as four weeks for a round of beta tests, a company spokesperson told the FT.
