My mate has just got one so I could write a brief review after some fiddling with it this coming weekend. It looks very user friendly, but I want to have a proper play before I pass judgment. I personally refuse to pay £135 per year to watch absolute shite, so I don't have a telly license and don't watch scheduled broadcast TV.
Whilst I think the PlayTV (£79.99 in Game) is all well and good, the issue I have with it is that it costs more than a 250GB HDD Freeview box (£69.99 in all good retail outlets), defeating the whole reason for it's existence.
