I dont think it supports Freeview interactive but does have EPG.

Looks good but is it pants?

What's so different about that?...standard behaviour for any DVDR.

This is the first DVD/HDD combination which also has freeview.. or have I missed something?

Panasonic DVDRs.

This one also supports Divx via cd/dvdr or even through a usb hard drive plugged into its usb port.

As far as i can tell its the only unit to do all that in one with freeview.

I still wouldn't buy one.

 

[iamcrunchie]

I wasnt asking you to, i was asking if people had any experience using one yet....

Clearly you dont.

Ellion's other offerings looks pretty sweet so im tempted once they are in stock

I've plumped for this one from Amazon. There other players seem to get OK reviews and I've been called a Brand Slave so am trying it out.

Will report back when it arrives

Sinj - Any news on how you got on with this one ?

 

[sinj]

I am weak. I cancelled my order as I hadn't seen any feedback (and also I couldnt afford it at the time).

I'm still umming and aaaahing. This one or the panasonic ex75???????
