    Humax boxes are easy to live with, have you considered the DTR T1000?
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    I've got this one and my grandad said it was far easier than his panasonic version. :-)

    It's by far the easiest PVR to use-even for those who can't spell aerial ;)
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    I gave my old pvr9200 (similar control, older model) to my [STRIKE]oldies[/STRIKE] parents when I switched to Freesat. Much easier to use than their other PVR. Plus there's the option to record two programmes at a time.

    This is what I like the most. In fact you can even watch a programme you copied earlier as well as recording 2 channels all at the same time.
    I remember the early days of the vcr when I thought it was amzing you could record one channel while watching another....how times have changed.
