I'm not complaining, just checking Steve, since I know that some talking items are provided without VAT.

I really fail to understand why people are complaining about VAT on something like this. If there was a naught on the end of the price there would be something to complain about. Ibrihim made a valid point recently when he said about Apple and it's inbuilt accessibility. We're paying nothing for this extra. It's mainstream, the same as Joe Normal off the street. Way to go I say! Smiles.

Pretty much every feature speaks apart from the BBC Iplayer. The box is of course upgradable so it may well be possible for Tvonics to make the Iplayer speak.box is accessible. The speech is smooth and responsive, you can add, deleteI really don't think this is a major downside as everything else on theand edit timers, You can series link tv/radio programs and much more. Whenfast forwarding and rewinding you have audio feedback as to how far you havemoved through the program.the range of £500/600 but we have a box for almost a quarter of that figure.A couple of years ago it was looking as if an accessible PVR would be inI don't think anyone will be dissapointed by either the features or theperformance of this box.It's what we've been waiting for.
