2x DVB-S tuners
2x DVBxT tuners
1x UHF/CATV tuner

Then...

SCART socket, s-video in/out, 250 gig HDD, DVD-/+ R/RW and remote control.

Seems like sat stuff to me! Providing there's decent third party support for the DVB-S/T tuners it seems like amazingly good VFM to me and the kind of thing I've been looking for in a satellite receiver for years. For what you get (hardware wise*) it would appear better value than a Dreambox/Topfield/Kaon/Triple Dragon.

*I say that but then who knows what DVB cards are in it? They may be £30 jobbies!
