Interesting how lacking information the Freeview TV NZ website is, on what streaming live boxes and TV are available. It doesn't do prime. The big issue I have with it, is that you can't really use it as an aerial replacement if you have a PVR. A PVR still needs an aerial feed into it, so it is hopeless for recording, unless that feature is built in and you can record to a USB stick or card. But they are generally not as user friendly as PVR such as a tivo, or panasonics PVRs
These devices are usually for where you don't have terrestrial coverage so a recorder would be useless in any way. For that you use the on-demand feature - except obviously for programs such as news. But as I said if you have a PVR that needs an aerial feed, but you don't have coverage...
