PCI or PCI-e dvb-t2 card, please!
it wouldnt be such a frustrating wait if they werent broadcasting yet. Knowing they are but having no way of getting it just pisses me off.
The ball is now rolling.
About bloody time!
I may wait for a PC card myself as I want to record but don't want to pay £300+ for a recorder.
Like others its getting annoying knowing the signal is over my head right now and I just can't use it.
This is where Freesat is winning. Why pay £179 for a receiver when it doesn't record? For a penny short of £200, you have a Freesat HD PVR which is running iPlayer.
winning?Quote:

Dont forget the fact that unless you already have a satelite dish then with freesat you need to get one installed which ups your price alot, I am with freesat and will stay with them as although the price will drop on these i find satelite signal way more reliable than normal tv signal at my houseQuote:
