It's a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) one, where you can record and pause tv etc.

As it's only got 80 hours capacity for recording, can I just stick in a 1/2/3gig memory usb stick and record directly on to this for future viewing?

And also for increased recording capacity?

Ta:)

What's it for then?

Is there anyway to increase capacity on it?

I've only got digital since Saturday but nearly have capacity full already:D

"For future use" is the line they give. It is the very same as with Sky+ boxes. They are not enabled and the only thing their useful for is charging an iPod.

Balls to that:mad:

But not really surprised with it being NTL.

As the saying goes: If it's too good to be true.........
