Default Any chance of selling an iTgate box now?

Hi I have an itgate cabe box atr home that is doing nothing since Ireland switched to N£, I was wondering is there much point in me trying to sell it on an english website for UK users? I would have no problem shipping it to England if necessary, but if there is no use for it Ill use it as a doorstop or something Any advice appreciated

if it is an ITgate 220c then this has an ethernet port and is linux based, i'm sure you could set it up to the interweb to get some extra use out of it.

I dont understand the need for nonsensical ignorant replies, I know people here are English thats why I was asking the question here. The box has no use in Ireland as we all know, so all I wanted to know is wheter it would be of any use to people in England whose cable operator hasnt yet rolled out N3 It was a simple question, either it is sellable or it isnt. If you cant reply with relevant information then dont bother replying at all

Thank you for your reply, it was the only sensible reply I got. I considered buying a sat tuner for it and connecting it to the net but dbros wanted £50+shipping for the tuner, but I got a DM500s clone shipped for around the same money. So its still on cable, at the moment

wait till the extra services are public release for cable systems, its not costing you anything while it is sat there unplugged.
