That is very cheap. I wonder if its a misprint.

No that link that gromituk posted is for the single tuner version. Why do folk allways want to be so negative

Because even though it has 2 tuners you CANNOT record 2 channels at once you can record 1 channel and watch another.and no MHEG which means no interactive services (digital text, red button, etc).and Ikasu are a cheap chinese make which wont have a lot of after sales support and virtually no firmware updates save your money and buy a Humax 9200t instead you wont regret it even if its around £180

Definitely not a misprint, just a cheap(ish) PVR. When you add the item to the basket and checkout you find that VAT is added on top, and the postage is £6.80. Bringing the total to £85.53.

I don't want to be negative either but budget PVRs are notoriously unreliable, I wouldn't like to guess what percentage end up getting returned. It's usually wise to wait until a few thorough user reviews are around on the internet before going for a really low-end model, to see if the hardware and software is stable enough. You'll be taking your chances with this one, but it's probably a fair price and you might get lucky.
