Hi Terry, I would have to disagree with the reliability bit. Ask Frank Haslam <Smile>. He was in a 100 percent strength area, and the darned thing wouldn't even tune in for him, even though the engineer who installed the aerial checked it all out, and Portset tried to blame it on the area. I am not at all impressed with the Portset Media Centre. Anything that can play Daisy, but can't play MP3, is just a little bit incredible to me. And over 800 quid for no picture? All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

Although more expensive than the I-Player it does far more, and I can say from experience is a good deal more wholistically accessible and reliable. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christopher Hallsworth" <chrishallsworth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, November 02, 2006 5:20 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: netgem IPlayer > That's very bad news.
