The Hitachi hdb73 at £24.99 at Argos seems to have HDMI output. Does anyone know if it any good?

The argos website now has reviews of most stuff, just looked up the hitachi box and it's got an average of 4 1/2 stars out of 5 from 7 reviews, so seems like it would be good! Link to reviews here (click the reviews tab on the page):

Are the other two hdmi freeview boxes on argos any better than the hitachi because they're more expensive? (aside from the fact that the hitachi looks a bit ugly)

Netto has got a TECHNIKA TDVB77 for £12.99, there was only 3 left in my local store but dont know how good/bad they are

Here's a link to the same one on Ebay (Hope I'm allowed to do that?)

Re: Clarity model - Have gone to my local Argos Extra store to find no sign of any Clarity Freeview boxes, as stated in this article. There's no mention of any in the catalogue and there were no other models under £16.
Anyone know where else I can get a Claity one, please?

The info given in the OP when clicking on the link, is that the Techwood DV925B, is Twin Scart

And maybe the Clarity also.

But when going to the Argos site it lists these two as only having 1 scart ?

Argos; - Techwood

Argos Clarity

Just tried to buy the Hitachi hdb73 at Argos.
The "assistance" couldn't find our house on her database, despite it being 140 years old and us having lived there, with the same postcode for the past 15 years.
So she would not sell it to me.
Got home, all annoyed and went to their website, followed all the links to send feedback.
Typed in my comments, hit send and got an error message.
Hit the backspace and all my comments had disappeared.
Well that's one way of not getting any complaints....now I remember why it's a long time since I bought anything from there :-(
