Humax PVR-9200T - £189.99 (free p&p)

This is rated as one of the best personal video recorders (PVRs) on the market and, after much web-checking, the best price I found was £189.99 at:

I hadn't heard of this company before, but they were listed at:

http://www.hummy.org.uk/

which is a webpage dedicated to the 9200. I ordered on Sunday evening, and it arrived this morning (Tuesday), so great service.

The 9200 has a 160 GB hard drive and a Freeview tuner. I'm very impressed with it so far.

    The "Over the Air" update is this week (6th to 10th April) - just leave your Humax on standby & set to check for updates overnight, or use the manual check between those dates.

    For those that can't wait, and have a serial null modem cable you can download the software from the Humax support web site to your pc, connect the Humax using the serial cable & update the software that way.
