    Good Points: This Freebox has to be one of the easiest on the market. Is is clear, user friendly and the instructions to set up are a delight. The first week or so of ownership are wonderful.


    Bad Points: ......but then it all starts to go wrong!
    I received a "message" which indicated that there has been a download to include subtitle information. This sets up a new area on the original menu page entitled messaging. This seems to be the route of the problems. Your freebox then starts to have a mind of its own, recording whatever it fancies and then sending me a "message" telling me that the invalid recording was corrupt and it immediately deleted it. I have had up to 20 of these messages everyday. I have to read each and every message before I can delete them. Arghh!!!


    General comments: Nice box but huge technical problems - I am on my third box now (accepted others might have been damaged) but this will be going back at the weekend.
    My Aunty has experienced the same problems.
    Cannot understand why none of the comments from other users include these huge problems - but a different model. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone!

    We got the Thomson DTI2305 Freeview box because we weren't sure if we wanted Topup TV or not. Buying this gave us the option to get it later should we feel the need. We never have. Freeview itself is fine for us. We are a household with two young children.

    The upsides:

    1. The quality is good, and the availability of two scart sockets is good, as you can send one to your VCR if you want.

    2. Also good is the separate Audio out port, which meant I could hook freeview up to my home cinema ...

    The Thomson DTI2305 box is generally slow. Now and Next often does not work correctly. N&N covers most of the screen. Interactive is slow and unreliable.

    Hit the text button on the Thomson DTI2305 and choose a page, then go and make a cup of tea and it may have loaded on your return.

    I also have a Philips and Sony Box which do not have TopupTV and both have a fast reponse with text.
