    ..that can let you watch freeview telly without you having access to an aerial? One that perhaps works off wifi?

    Cheers in advance.

    If I plug an aerial into the telly, it'll work but there's no aerial in the room the tv's in. I was just wondering if there was a set top box or something that I could connect to the telly that would work off the wifi to give the freeview channels or something.

    Having a laptop connected to it permanently isn't really practical. A good idea for temp though, cheers xx

    Hmmm, there probably is, TV isn't my area...

    You can stream most stuff now

    http://tvcatchup.com/

    All you need to get is a basic desktop with a HDMI port or TV-out card, would set you back about £150-£200...

    Otherwise just plug the laptop in, most of them have a HDMI port.

    No it's because you're a nice person.

    Dumbass wimmin always need men.

    Intelligent wimmin also need men, but only for shagging.

    These are the truths.
