So what? I hear you ask. After all, Sky TV has been around for years. The difference, however, is rather pivotal – Freeview, as the name suggests, is absolutely free to watch. You simply buy the box as a one off purchase from a retailer such as Tvonics , plug it in, tune it and suddenly you have access to up to 48 channels and an additional 24 radio stations. That is increasing your potential watching power by twelve fold! Not bad for one little box. Check out the TVonics MFR-300, so easy to use and fits in the palm of your hand!

The channels you have access to are great as well. Ever since Film 4 joined the ranks, Freeview has been taken seriously by TV addicts and film buffs alike. There is now a collection of critically revered and recommended channels, including the comedy genius of BBC3, and the joyous repeats of Dave. Never before Freeview arrived on our screens have we had the chance to watch a channel named after a random “bloke”, or known that the comfort and reliable giggles of “Friends” is always just around the corner.

The joy of Freeview, in addition to the excellent programmes and huge amount of choice, is the ease with which you can become part of the Freeviewing world. The box simply links up to nearly every TV, and transforms it into a different world for your viewing pleasure. The TVonics MFR-200, MFR-300 and MDR-250 are able to function with any television set. Even better, the slightly chunky retro style boxes look great in a bachelor pad or technology laden house. If sweet compact style is your thing, however, you can watch FiveUSA, E4 or CNN through a smooth palm size box that gives compact a whole new meaning.

Of course, once you are hooked up (and you don’t even need a scart connection nowadays, it’s that easy) then you encounter the problems – deciding what to watch. Perhaps that is what decision dice were really invented for! Luckily, this does stop that age old problem of flicking through repeatedly and never finding anything that you want to view! With whole channels devoted to music (4music, TMF), or to the classics such as archive TopGear (Dave), there will always be something new or well-loved to curl up and spend your evenings enjoying. Even better, the influx of new channels has made it harder to miss your staple programmes, with “+1” channels allowing you to catch the start an hour later – perfect for letting you spend your evening as you really want. You could even get a Freeview+ box, like the TVonics DTR-Z500, and record your favourite programmes to watch whenever you want.

You needn’t worry that everything is new shiny and unfamiliar. Because you still get the original BBC, ITV and Channel 4, it is easy to gradually add programmes and new finds to your repertoire. The reliable enjoyment of Eastenders and even the News can still be old friends – and can even get better with the 24 hour news channel updating you at all hours of the day. This truly is a technological advancement!

So there you have it – a simple little box that has changed the face of television for the foreseeable future. See in the digital switchover with this stylish and exciting box perched on your TV!
