    Noooooo. No good for you as you need something with a card slot, but good for other people

    FreeSAT boxes are available for £24.99:

    Ideal if you've got a limited Freeview service and have a Sky dish, allowing you to get over 200 TV and radio channels.

    £65 for an HD one alternatively

    Cheers

    Does that argos one shows all free channels on sky? or where can i check what's on that?

    AIT is subscription only now(£5.99/month), a FreesatFromSky card won't do.

    If you don't have any kind of Sky card, I don't know whether AIT would supply one or not.

    AIT wont deal with customers without sky card

    No it's a Freesat box (and SD, not HD). It does not receive Sky FTA channels (although the channel line up is similar on both platforms).
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
