[QUOTE="KidKiwi, post: 18143, member: 13982"] Hi All, Just had to dial in on this thread - especally as it's NZ biased. I recently had a major discussion via email with SkyTV concerning their latest developments. According to Sky, their new decoder is in the works, but is undergoing extensive testing (they don't want any bugs they said) It is unlikely to be available until Xmas 2005, or even later I was told. It will be able to record two channels simultaneously on to a HD - although it will be encrypted MPEG on the HD (damn!) The USB connection shown in the Tone article will not be included (I asked as I thought it might be used for additional storage) They are creating a new UI for the new decoder (thank you!) Currently they are focusing on converting their pay-per-view channels to WS. HD - (It was Tone mag that discussed the HD versus 4xSD) and Sky didn't mention anything about HD. Personally, I would rather have 5.1 sound broadcast than HD [/QUOTE]
