Virgin Media TiVo review
TiVo is a must-have upgrade if you currently get your TV through Virgin Media and want to continue doing so, or if you want the most powerful PVR on the market.

Humax PVR-9150T review
The Humax PVR-9150T is a no-frills, standard-definition Freeview recorder for those still enslaved by Scart. It's dull, but it's quiet and it does what it says on the tin. Read more

Humax's HDCI-2000 is a satellite tuner that receives experimental free-to-air HDTV signals. Not for the faint-hearted, this box requires a fair bit of setting up, but for initial adopters and those who enjoy tinkering with technology the HDCI-2000 is a toy that should satisfy, and its performance is rewarding Read more
