Aldi have a portable satellite kit in stock on Sunday 12 May.

OK for most of England.

At £59.99 this sounds too good to be true.

The listing says that...

"Receiver lets you access free-to-air HD channels with live pause, record and playback."

A basic Bush HD box alone costs £70. The reference to live pause record and playback suggests that it contains a hard drive. Such boxes usually start at around £150.

This outfit also includes a dish, so surely something must be wrong?

Yep, you will need to add a USB HDD, around £40 upwards or a reasonably sized USB memory stick. I think Aldi will get a few returns. And of course it's not a Freesat receiver so manual tuning and sorting.

Why do you need a usb memory stick? After reading the review of it; it sounds like you plug it into the back of your freeview tv and hey presto!
