    These seem destined for world domination, they produce them by the million in china and have a very low price point, they do lots of Subco from the big players and recently showed a Set top box\media server\music& video streamer that is 180cm x180cm

    So is this UHD 4tune+ box the 3rd generation box hinted at?

    Can/should I buy one from Germany and use it in the UK to replace my trusty Foxsat-HDR?

    Doubtful. The G3 box contract has been lost by Humax, awarded to a company ARRIS as I recall. So the chances of seeing a G3 FREESAT branded/approved box from Humax are close to nil.

    Unlikely that it will support the FREESAT EPG.
