Sky Digibox design overhaul

Can't you tell the difference between viewing and interactive ?

Apologies, wouldn't know as I don't have a Sky box so made an errant guess.

Who'd have known there'd be two seperate cards?

Personally I like the design of the new box, especially compared to my old Year 2000 model Pace Digibox which is still in use today. The buttons being on the top isn't the best idea, but it won't be a problem for me as there is nothing on top of the box.

As for the viewing card being behind a flap, I'm a big fan of that. At the moment my baby sister keeps pulling the card out the box and hiding it, which is a big inconvenience.

Interesting design, it has to be said, but it's all cosmetic really, technically it's still the same old dodgybox!

I prefer the design of the HD box my self

Hmm ok. The Viewing card slot speaks for itself, while the Interactive Slot is a little used slot only currently used for Sky [Credit] Card.

The digital photo looks far better than the publicity shot.

It seems odd they're not updating the inards at the same time. From what I'veused to Sky I always find it to be slow compared to some of the newer freeview boxes.

I'll shrug, accept that I was wrong and hope you don't hold such a small thing as not knowing the ins and outs of slots on a Sky box against me.

There's only one way I can describe the new look Sky digiboxes . . . fugly!

That sounds like a hybrid of the normal and Sky+ remotes. Do you have a pic?

That lighter colour will show up grubby finger-prints a lot more. Nice duvet cover though!
