Have cancelled talk talk and gone with ee for phone/broadband. I'm wanting to get a box that does similar to the talktalk box which they obviously want back which I knew. Want to buy a freeview recorder box that accesses all the catch up providers. The ones I've seen refer to iplayer but not the other ones -itv ch 4 etc. Anyone got any suggestions or recommendations. Don't need a huge memory - 320g or 500g would be fine.

    Humax are the most recommended brand. This link explains what facilities various models offer. http://www.humaxdirect.co.uk/Direct?gclid=CO3BiY3U2cECFazItAodemAABQ
  • EE are just starting to roll out their own TV offering. You may want to wait and see if this provides what you want.
    Are you for real? - Glass Half Empty??

    Just buy a retail or second hand YouView box and if you have the budget, go for one of the latest second generation boxes. Either a T2000 or T2100.
