you still need to get a TV subscription with NTL/Telewest (cheapest is 20 quid a month i think), but when the engineer leaves you just swap the boxes over and use the dbox - but yes, its two-way communication between the box, unlike sky which uses a telephone socket for the return/upload data. | |

there not illegal to own, but to use they are! Safer getting a Sky version of them than the cable version though (cable can do checks on your boxes, where as sky can't without a phone socket). | |

You can only recieve non encrypted channels on them though right? i.e. free view? | |
