Hi

Our venerable Humax 9200T finally expired last week. I have been looking at the Humax HDR Fox T2 HD recorder. Argos have it listed twice:

1) @£199.99 as stock clearance - cat no 532/2604 - mostly only avaulable for home delivery
2) @179.99 as new item - cat no 114/4697 NOT IN STOCK

Please could someone clarify whether these are the same item or not, as I cannot find any reference to Humax producing a replacement model?

Many thanks

I think the only people that could probably tell you is Argos. They seem to have done something similar with the Humax youview box.

I would assume the second item is erroneous, no such model as the HDR-2000T (or HDR-2000T T2) ...

I would recommend getting a Humax HDR-FOX T2 from Amazon.co.uk

Are you sure about that

I'll come clean....

The HDR 2000T is in development though it is not due to launch just yet.

Oh, OK. A new model at a lower price... doesn't sound promising...

Don't read to much into the Argos spiel, about the only thing they have correct is the model number.

The Argos site has a picture of the HDR Fox T2 on the HDR 2000T page, so I guess they haven't got a picture of the new model yet

Thanks for that Barry!

Unless my eyes were deceiving me yesterday evening, Argos were advertising both as HDR FOX-T2!

A guess then: 2000 = 2TB?
