It's been announced for a USA release, hopefully it will come here with Freeview/Freesat. It's basically an OTA TV receiver and recorder box which casts the channels and recordings to your FireTV, tablet or phone. The 500GB box can record 2 channels at a time, the 1TB box can record 4. There's a USB port to add more storage (yay!) and it integrates with the FireTV UI and Alexa.

Hopefully the phone app will have the TV guide on it, so I could set things to record as I can with the YouView app I have for my box now.

There really isn't any time in the day for me to use this sort of box. Surely smart TVs combined with iPads etc have completely killed off these things?
