Hi Gang
A few weeks ago, some members of this list were discussing a Logik Freeview box
supporting Audio Description that they could purchase from Currys for £59.99.
Then, more recently, I thought I read here that RNIB were selling this same box
for a bit more than that, around £70 I thought I saw.
Well, in the latest issue of RNIB's Access IT mag, they are advertising two
Freeview boxes, both supporting AD. One is the TV-Onics MFR300 (product number
TV02), costing £70.49. The other is the TV-Onics MDR300 (product number TV01),
costing £82.24). The difference is that the more expensive of the two gives an
audible bleep when you change channels, and a double audible bleep when AD is
available.
Now for my question. Is the Logik Freeview box also being sold by RNIB, or did
I get it wrong, and the above devices from TV-Onics are additional Freeview
products to their range? I would happily ring Customer Services, but they
don't always know the latest information, as they are often quick to point out.
