Waste of money then as you'll be paying 14.75 extra a month but not be able to take advantage, wait until you have a HD tv.

The way i'm thinking is if I get a HD TV in the next year or 2 I won't have to pay 200ish euro on another upgrade to the system

But you'll shell out nearly 200 euro in a year for HD and you won't even be using it!!

Get Sky+ now and 12 months from now upgrade again and get a Sky HD box for 49 euro.

Yes, you can get a HD splitter that can run two signals to different TVs.

that may be andy also.

But what i want to know is it possible to get 2 different signals out. so one can watch a recorded program and the other tv can watch live tv

Standalone: Sky+ box is €149 and installation is €100 == 249

Standalone: Sky+HD box is €49 and Installation is €80
plus 14.75 * 12 = 177 == 306

so only 60 euro dearer and i have the HD box I cancel HD after 12 months and get it again when i get a HD TV (service probally free then)

Wow, that's a rip off for existing customers!

Do what I did, cancel and then get the wife / partner to sign up as a new customer and get a far better deal.

No, But you could watch the Freesat channels in the other room using your existing sky box.
