    Not “ hard to find” , impossible to find.

    3D is dead.
    It flopped big time and nobody is making 3D TVs right now.
    If you want a 3D TV you will have to buy second hand.

    Official “ freesat” is a UK only EPG service.
    For terrestrial the UK uses different tuner tech than saorview, so any dual tuner TVs that officially support freesat will have the wrong tuners for Saorview.

    You can get pre programmed linux based enigma 2 triple tuner combo boxes that will give you the free satellite channels and saorview in a 7 day EPG from freetv.ie.
    They are not “ official” Freesat but are close enough not to make any difference.
