Hello,

Has anyone come across the product "Freebox" yet?   If so, have
you found
the catch?   The site was mentioned on the register (www.theregister.co.uk
-
an excellent news site by the way) and looks intriguing.

What they're offering is a box which will provide Digital TV. (only the
free
to air channels so far), DVD, Internet, and a web cam/video conferencing
for
£10.    They've got to be mad!  Apparently they expect to recoup the costs
through advertising?!?

Take a look at www.iwantabox.com and see what you think?

Cheers,

Nick
