Timer still live here in Stockholm, which is the same time zone as Paris. So, let's be reasonable and wait for the unreasonable until 10.00, which is 1h and 27 minutes from when I'm typing this.
So, what will it be? Hardly a french TV box for a french tripple play supplier. I'm hoping for smaller and substantially less costly phantoms..
..but soon we will know, unless their web guru has mistaken the date for the timer so they rteally did mean men October 10

Ola,
We don't have an announcement going public at different times all over the world. What we have is countdown timers which supposedly are counting down to the announcement all timing out at different times all over the world because Devialet failed to set the timers to 10.00 am 9 October Paris time but rather to 9.00 am 9 October ***LOCAL TIME*** so there's 24 different time outs for the countdown but nothing is happening when 23 of those time outs happen.
It's all down to incompetence in designing the web page functions.
Just think, 24 time zones and some of them have the timer run out and get nothing like jig and I did, then those in the Paris time zone have the timer run out and get the announcement and then in the rest of the time zones the timers are still going to be busy counting down with 1 or more hours to go when suddenly the announcement is probably going to go live before they expect it.
It's sad but Devialet has no sense of how time works around the world and how to implement a count down timer on a web page.
