Which Freeview box would suit

Hi,
Probably an easy one for you all but here you go.

I am not very technical so please help me. In a nutshell I want to buy a freeview box but have no idea what I need or want.

Some are more expensive and I don't know why.

I just wasnt to receive the freeview channels, I don't need to save anything on HD, just the channels will suffice.

I have a Hitachi 32PD5200 with one scart which makes it all the more interesting.

any suggestions to help me chose the best box for me

The Sony has a nice 7 day EPG and is fast at changing channels. The Pioneer is also quick and easy to use. Cheaper boxes tend to be slow on the Interactive services and also changing channels,i don't know why but that is just my experience.
