Personally I'd rather spend a little more and get the Humax HD-FOX T2 for £164.99 from Play.com which is already in stock.
Bah, no iPlayer functionality yet then :(Quote:
an Ethernet port that will one day make use of video-on-demand services such as BBC iPlayer.
Go get yourself a Freesat HD box. Instant iPlayer. :cool:Quote:

Not sure if you would be able to access the iPlayer anyway without any reception as it is accessed via the red button on BBC channels.Quote:

No, not out of the box.. whether they enable this in a future firmware update is up for grabs. And whether it'd do everything their PVR (due out in the next few months) will do is down to them.Quote:

Yeah but for that sort of functionality on a tv I find my ps3 works very well, it has a full web browser, support for all the on demand video websites, and playtv can be used for the epg, pvr and other regular tv functionality. Now if theyd just release a freeview hd playtv id be sorted...Quote:
