    Hello,

    A friend of mine has a starview box for Virgin, does anyone know of a similar box which will work for Sky?

    I have hunted around on the net for ages but cant seem to find anything.

    Cheers

    just to let people know there is a new box coming out in about a week or so that will work with sky.you will need to have a broadband connection .you will need to connect this to the box a well as the sky cable,the broadband connection is to help it update.
