I'm sure they must mean Freeview as audio description is already available on Sky and cable.

I thought when they meant digital, they were referring to Freeview, but perhaps not. God knows Iain. The article also claims the cheaper of the TV-Onics boxes is the cheapest Freeview device carrying AD on the market. So what about the Logik model, or did I really dream that? I'm not only confuzzled, I'm getting worried if I go to sleep and dream of Freeview boxes sold by RNIB and Currys (smiles).

I note the article says, digital TV is not available in all areas.' I had always thought that digital TV was available in all areas and that it is Freeview which isn't available in all areas. It certainly isn't available where I live. Am I right or do they really mean digital TV?

Then, more recently, I thought I read here that RNIB were selling this same box for a bit more than that, around £70 I thought I saw. Well, in the latest issue of RNIB's Access IT mag, they are advertising two Freeview boxes, both supporting AD. One is the TV-Onics MFR300 (product number TV02), costing £70.49. The other is the TV-Onics MDR300 (product number TV01), costing £82.24). The difference is that the more expensive of the two gives an audible bleep when you change channels, and a double audible bleep when AD is available. Now for my question. Is the Logik Freeview box also being sold by RNIB, or did I get it wrong, and the above devices from TV-Onics are additional Freeview products to their range? I would happily ring Customer Services, but they don't always know the latest information, as they are often quick to point out. Jackie Email: cairnsplace@xxxxxxx Skype Name: Cairnsplace
