    Sagem Freesat HD recorder

    Need to buy a freesat HD recorder, its not for me its for my mum, she will never use it to record but that not my problem.. I understand that she will now need to buy a standalone Freesat HD receiver that records in order to acheive this.. She already has a Panasonic 40" TV with built in Freesat HD and now has decided she wants to record because her friend does with hers... I have had a quick look and seen this Sagem jobby, does anybody use it or recommend another reasonably priced product that has that spec and has BBC iPlayer (I know iPlayer is coming to Freesat in 2010 so this gimmick may be short lived on the box)

      Usually recommend the afore mentioned foxsat to customers and it's also the best looking kit I've seen.
      She can also use it as a music juke box by transfering music via the USB if she likes to party hard

        have heard a lot of positive feedback on that box for its easy to use interface,although it is a bit on the dear side

          cheers lads. will have a look into that Foxsat box as well... I guess the BBC Iplayer thing is not the clincher she once thought seeing as the service will be available on Freesat itself at some point this summer, or will she need a box that supports that service anyway in order to use it..?

              You might want to take a look at the Technisat HDFS, as she already has freesat HD in the TV. It only has one tuner, but at about half the price of the foxsat HDR, it's another option for recording freesat.
