Not got one yet but looked into it and I'll probably replace my existing humax dtr with a humax youview box when I eventually get the opportunity (cash).

Talktalk ones are on ebay for around £70 to £100

Ordered one last night, just hoping I don't get an empty box

Was going to get the Icecrypt T2300 from Tesco for £50 but i have a Icrecrypt T2200 and it's stopped working over HDMI so i can't get HD anymore

It turned up yesterday, still in all it's original packaging, looks like they plugged it in to see if it worked and that's it

First impressions after a quick play are good, the TV guide is nice and clear and easy to use, quickly tried iPlayer on it and that works well.

Overall I'm impressed for £70 delivered and it has HD, ondemand stuff and can record. Glad I went for this rather than the Icecrypt T2300 for £20 less

Set it up to record TopGear on Sunday in HD as I won't be here so will see if it records it

You can also get an app for iFail/Android so you can set it to remote record from your mobile like Sky have

Not tried this feature yet, but it sounds interesting

Not that anyone's really interested BUT

It recorded Topgear in HD and even adjusted for it being delayed due to the tennis, and recorded another HD program at the same time

Very happy for £70

I'm interested!

Who actually made the talktalk box?

The 320GB version I have is a Huawei box

Maybe, think they would be a bit bored though

I was looking at these last weekend as my dad is thinking of getting one, and it looks like a great little box.

Any significant issues that you've noticed @Ammo?

Can these be networked, or streamed from? or is it pretty much a stand alone box?
