    Freeview

    Wanting a brand new freeview box and also a freeview usb with antenna for pc.

    Don't know what are good but I've got £45 to spend on both but no more.

    I've found this so far

    Amazon.co.uk: Digital TV DVB-T USB Adapter/Dongle/Stick Freeview receiver & aerial for PC and Laptop: Electronics & Photo

    Anyone else got any they can recommend?

    out of stock at mo , plus is it any good?
