Hmmm ... I don't have a Makro card and the nearest BT shop is in the middle
of Winchester (which is a bitch to park at). Otherwise good suggestions!
:-D

I have a SliMP3 for that! :-D

Anyone tried the Sony Freeview box (VTX-D800U) - looks nice (typical Sony I
guess) and it's available from Comet (which is on my way home). Basically
something from Argos, Dixons, Comet or Currys would be ideal as then I can
just drop in one evening this week and not have to worry about parking. :-D
