    It's been claimed this is the freeview HD receiver with changed software.
    Does anyone know if it is still DVB-T2 capable?

    Dont know about the Stand alone box, but will do a quick review on the Bush 22" Saorview/DVD Combo 1080p

    Got it Friday, and installed, for the bedroom.

    PRO - Price €199
    - 1080p ( although when I read the manual it says 13?? x 768 max resolution... I was like a bull, until I made a 1080p test card in paint and displayed it through the media USB on the TV, lol ... manual was wrong AFAIK)
    - LED.

    CON - Teletext painfully slow, about 20 secs to load, similar to the Digihome Integrated TV's in Currys, so check out bedore buying a Bush STB, in case of same.... Walker box is way faster. )
    Sound very Tinny.
    Viewing Angle - Vertial not too good, so make sure it's mounted angled correctly for the bed.
    Connector orientation - Scart, Ariel not side connecting, so need to plan another couple of CM from the wall to allow for the connections.

    All in all, 3/5, I'm not sure how this compares, but from my small shopping around, it's a nice pricepoint for the xmas kid's bedroom TV, with the DVD built in.

    Currys - Digihome 22"- similar spec, and Teletext slow speed €219, then Tesco's €229 , although I dont know it's text load speed.

    Hope this helps.
