Freesat Boxes

[admin_exported]

Sorry if this should be in TVs/Projectors, but my question is, have any new Freesat boxes come out since those original few or are there any on the horison?

Also will it be a long way of before there's boxes that have a HDD and can record hi-def programs?

My Friends at FreeSat tell me that the initial batch of boxes sold out almost immediatley. More are in the shops now and more on the way, but demand is outsripping supply. TVs with built-in decoders should start trickling into the shops pretty much now. PVRs (with Sky+ style serie/EPG record functionality) will arrive in the autumn in time for Christmas. Remember, that there will be huge demand for boxes in the summer (ie soon....) because the BBC will have The Olympics in HD on their channel. For free, Mr Murdoch. For Free Mr Branson......

Yep Humax are making a PVR model due out soon enough, from what I hear the Freesat is limited to a certain number of manufacturers and shops that will stock it initially.
