Hi Carol,

You didn't read my message properly <Smile>.  I said I didn't know how
accessible it was, I don't have one yet.  But the stations you can receive
are only limited by your sky or cable box, as it plugs into it directly.

All the best

Steve

Steve,

Never heard of this before and obviously have missed a message or two . . ..

I took a look at the WEB site and understand what it is but of course, with 
no eyes readily available, have no idea how large and what stations you can 
pick up from anywhere.

Further information, if you have it, would be interesting.

Also, do you know how accessible the software is for us?

Do you have one yet, or is it on the Christmas list?
