It isn't available with a HD recorder yet. When it is I'll probably get it myself.

You don't have to buy it from Sky, shop around you could get it cheaper.

But have you thought about why you want it?


I have what is effectively the same thing (a Sky box but without a Sky subscription), and the channels we watch most are on Freeview anyway, some of them (Dave, Virgin, SSN) are on Freeview and not on Freesat.

The channels that are on Freesat but not on Freeview are generally the rubbish ones that we don't watch anyway.

It might be worth getting Freesat for HD, but I wouldn't recommend it for any other reason at the moment, the extra channels are just rubbish.

And don't forget that Freeview will be rolling in four HD channels, starting next year in the north-west.
