The company recently said that it was on track to launch commercially before the end of 2007. But the service has been rolled out only on a trial basis to around 300 paying Orange customers in London and Leeds.
An Orange spokesperson said: “From our perspective, the platform is up and running in Leeds and London, but it’s important we get it right for the commercial launch.
“We don’t want a full commercial roll-out with a measured launch in certain cities. We are looking at [that] some point in the first half of this year.”
There will be no marketing of the IPTV service until the full commercial roll-out takes place. Orange TV will become the UK’s third IPTV service, along with Tiscali TV and BT Vision.
