i was at a market today and they usually sell digi boxes but they are selling a new type the D-Box from Germany it does not have a card and just updates automatically, you get all channels inc.PPV and these are brand new still in the box. anyone heard of them?
 
:)Yes, its probably a dbox2, works with linux i believe seems to be mentioned on a lot of the forums.

Information below taken from another forum:

Here is what the Box can do:

Pick up all the Channels on TW or NTL(Watch the free channels) and later add Keys to watch everything (No Card Needed !!!)

Hook it up to the Network and you can:

Record from your D-Box to a Windows PC running a Software called JacktheGrabber and record Live Digital TV incl. Dolby Digital Sound when broadcasted. Convert these MPEG Files into DVD Files and burn with Nero or something else onto a DVD.
Record from your D-Box to a Windows PC running a NFS Software or a Linux PC and store the files without converting on this PC.
Play MP3's from your PC to the D-Box and browse through Playlist and hook the box up to your Stereo
Show your holiday Photos on your TV
Watch your recorded Files on your TV inlcuding fast forward,pause etc.
Watch DVD's, DIVX, MPG, SVCD,VCD,AVI from your PC running VLC (google) on your TV.
Watch TV on your PC (Tuxvision,NGrab etc)
Modify or Rename all Channels via Internet Browser, Block certain channels with a code, Hide Channels...

Intigrate your Internet and you can:
Get your Weather Forecast on your Telly (Just checked an should be able to modify for UK) including Sat Pictures, Temps etc
Update a DynDNS Service via your Box
Get the headers of your Emails, with a message on the Telly when new mail arrives
Send a message from PC to TV (Get Beer...)
Play Games (Tetris and some old C64 Emulations)

If ISDN would be used a bit more in the UK you could get Caller Information on your TV Screen.....

A New project is already up and working:

Hook the DBox up to your XBOX and record on your XBOX HDD or watch telly.
