The Nokia 221T seems to be the current creme de la creme
However
If you are in a marginal area for reception then i would look at the boxes which contain the SetPal circuitry (Daewoo/Labgear etc), as this is much more sensitive to weak signals.

Nope the most feature packed and creme de la creme Freeview box is the Netgem I-Player (http://www.netgem.com/uk/home.html) and now reduced in price to £129 (or £109 from Empiredirect (http://www.empiredirect.co.uk/productdetailsnew.asp?modelcode=NET-IPLAYERDTT)) and yesterdays software update allow for surfing net/emails via ADSL/Cable broadband as well as dialup, Support for USB Disk-on-key, Hard Drive storage, Webcams, Printers, Support for MP3,AU,WAV,AIFF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, SWF,MPG and runs embedded Linux don't think the Nokia 221T can do that :)
You can read the various reviews from various A/V mags on the Netgem (http://www.netgem.com/main/pressclipping.xml) site.

Pace ones are excellent (assume you don't mean the old ITV Digital ones).
I have the Pace DTVA and love it. Performs very well indeed in both PQ and SQ. Nice features and menus are nippy enough. Only downside is there are no phonos to take the output into your amp/receiver, but I just take the phonos from the TV instead.
thats the little one that argos and dixons sells is it ?
