711003 2008-10-11 19:34:00 Yes, mine also updated itself like that several days ago. The only change I have noticed is a new Chinese channel. The tv is a Sony 32"LCD W series with freeview built in. Nyuuji (5460)
711004 2008-10-12 06:39:00 I also noticed that. whilst wondering through the stations I noticed on channel 243 the chinese station. This was not there before. gradebdan (2186)
711005 2008-10-12 07:38:00 Do those TVs do freeview satellite or freeview terrestrial? Greven (91)

You get that many stations with that?! I thought there were only about 8 or so channels with Freeview. Just bought a Bravia but decided it wasn't worth the extra for the built in tuner. Now that we've got it, it shows up the inadequacy of our analogue reception that I thought was fine with our old 25" CRT :rolleyes:

Freeview HD (terrestrial) only, no direct satellite dish input/decoding (if thats what you're asking?) asfar as I can tell from the specs on their site.
