That's fantastic news. They are starting to look like better value for money. Now all I am waiting for is a full HD panel they makes SD signals still look okay.

BV7 Freeview module

You won't need full HD on the BV7 as the screen is too small. However, I *am* wanting a HDMI based 'all digital' BV7 and am holding out on my BV7-32 (2004 model) -> BV7-40, BL9, BL7.4 purchase, until I hear more info! Last I heard is that it's going to be an August/September release, worldwide. If it's that soon, I'll wait until end of Summer.
This sounds like what I have been looking for!! But for that price of 350 GBP then I might just stick with seeing if they are gong to update the STB software to add my Humax box to it!
As far as I could tell it means that you don't have to have another piece of hardware and a few cables clutering behind your BV. Oh and of course another remote to deal with in most cases. Yes this picture quality it excellent but it still difficult to justify the price when you have a perfectly functioning external box.

The DVB-T will work via the Sat key. You can still have a Sky box but it will operate via the V.Aux button in the list system or using the new Beo5 ! Exactly what I had planned so I had already enquired!😂

Oh well you know B&O are out of touch with DVB-T when they're only just up to speed with us here in NZ!
Am sure we're the last on the planet (With B&O Stores) to lurch into the 20th Century as today our DVB-T service, with the original name of Freeview, was launched today! 😂
Hopefully the DVB-T might work over this side of the planet too 😂
The return of the sheep! I had missed you! Still proud of my New Zealand blood! How many channels - and how many not limited to Rugby and ovine interests?😂
My B&O Icons:
Thanks for clarifying Peter - looks like an upgrade to a Beo5 is the most fun route.
Re the Beo5, do the different sources you wish to have just appear on the touch sensitive screen (a bit like the iPhone will work).
Unlike the Struer crowd, I have not had a play so I will leave that query to one of them!
