First Freesat boxes appear 'for sale'
Published Friday, Apr 18 2008, 17:32 BST | By Dave West

Comet listed a high definition box, the GRUNDIG GUFSATHD, for £149.99 and a standard definition model, GUFSAT01, for £49.99. No pictures and few specifications were given, though Comet said the dimensions of both were 25x15x4cm.
The models appeared available to order but an Alba spokeswoman said details should not have been published until the official launch of the subscription-free satellite service.
Comet is one of Freesat's official launch retailers, along with DSG, Argos and John Lewis.
