    Have I missed the boat to get one for £10? I'm not sure if it is the right thing.

    Yes, Sky sold off their older stock with this £10 offer. Apparently they have an updated version now and the new price is £21.95.

    "Officially" speaking, demand was outstripping supply so they have had to raise the price to try to reduce the demand for a while. No word on whether it will return to £10 in the future.

    £22 is still a good price though IMHO.

    I thought they were selling off the 'G' ones and have now run out and are now selling 'N' ones?

    Yes, this is what I read over on the official Sky Help forum. Originally the offer was simply to sell off the "G"s, but demand outstripped supply and they ended up having to sell stock of the new "N" type at the reduced price.
    All models sold now are "N"s and are £21.95. I doubt they'll return to the £10 price point and I believe the old £60 cost was vastly over-priced.

    So, as anyone got the latest me 'N' slimmer boxes for free?

    I might try a call to them and speak nicely, I have got my phone and broadband with them as well!
