I saw somewhere a comment that it was due for replacement but not heard any more.
Anyone else seen anything similar?

Has anyone heard any rumours about a new replacement for the Foxsat HDR
General opinion is Humax will wait for the final G2 spec before finalising a design. Rumoured to be based on the latest icord.

Thanks Graham, any idea when that might be?

Humax, lets face it, have missed any dates they set for Freesat releases by about 6 months, so I'd say nearer 12 months minimum. Humax - if you are listening, feel free - prove me wrong !

As they are chasing a new spec as I understand it not yet fully decided it seems entirely prudent and reasonable. I can imagine the comments a la Panasonic
Failure to match the all the requirements of a spec not yet complete. Humax at least do support vod services like ITV 1.
How many other current Freesat+ boxes do so ?

I'm not saying that the final job isn't a good one on the part of Humax, I have no regrets whatsoever in buying Humax, just that they have a history of slipping dates on new Freesat releases. Add in your point on the spec not being final and it sounds like a 2012 Xmas present to me.

Does that not depend on which spec(s) they are trying to achieve - freesat G2, YouView or both - my guess is the latter.
