Freesat Fantastic Sent: 24 October 2008
Just set this up and it was running in under fifteen minutes. This is a cable and SKY killer and well worth the investment. Will work with pre-existing satellite dish and doesn't require the extra investment of 'HD dish' installation as suggested by salesperson.
you don't need to buy an hdmi cable with this unit  Sent: 19 October 2008
this is probably the best freesat box available at the moment. just to clarify one thing. this unit comes with an hdmi cable. check out the manufacturer's site for full details under "support" and then "accessories" for confirmation.
Great Unit - limited choice of channels Sent: 25 August 2008
Bought this great little box a couple of months ago and it does everything it says. The greens and reds are a bit vivid for me but the picture is faultless and the sound is something else using the HDMI lead (which had to be bought separate). The only problem is your limited to the number of channels you can watch. Its all very well saying there's 91, but most of them are "regional" channels showing the same program. Set-up is simplicity its self with the only question it asks is to enter your postcode. Don't forget to get the "update" after installing it. I have put mine back in its box for now and returned to "normal" SKY but only for more viewing choice.
However, if tempted I don't want to put you of and to help you save money, if you have SKY you don't need a satellite dish, just unplug your SKY unit, pop in your HD unit and connect up, the same satellite sends both signals. There, that's saved you £80 so that's another reason to consider one.. Amazon, delivery as good as ever - five stars for unit and delivery.
