Question Moving to Borneo!

I currently enjoy Sky HD on my Pioneer 43" plasma and have a Sony DVD player for movies. I also use my Toshiba laptop for internet etc . . . . . . but I am moving to Borneo and need to know what my options are i.e. can I buy a satellite dish that will allow me unfettered access to all my favourite UK TV
(albeit in non-HD) or do I go for a super-duper media PC (or laptop) which I can use for internet TV and would also double up as a blu-ray/DVD player etc etc.

Struggling to work out what is possible and therefore which way to go!!!

Help

Re: Moving to Borneo!

I'm sure if you ring *KY and inform them of your impending move they can re-position one of their sats over the Borneo region .At present the *KY footprint from 28.2 degrees just misses Boreno a smidgen :-)

Re: Moving to Borneo!

Thanks guys (even though your tongues are in your cheeks!) Maybe there is some UK tv on Aussie satellite tv which might be more accessible? Bear with me I usually just watch tv!!! (or what the wife watches anyway!)
