Can we get Recordable Freeview boxes in Ireland?

    I have Freeview for a while now, but the folks at home have the sky+ which is cool as you can record the programme and pause it as you are watching.
    Is there an equivalent box for Freeview? Or even one that at least records? If so any idea where I can pick one up?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    There is for Freeview too.

    Freeview = UK digital terrestrial via TV aerial (only very few areas)

    Freesat = UK digital Satellite TV via a Dish (almost anywhere in Ireland with a 20 degree elevation view to South East)
