Virgin Media Nagra 3 in North London area.
HD Channels (Net Geo HD, Discovery HD...)
Sky Movies and Sky Movies HD
Easy to set up (easy to install firmware and other things...)

Unless you have a sat dish, there are no HD cable options at the moment.
Kryptview are supposed to be bringing out a HD box soon, but I wouldn't hold my breath, plus their SD boxes have been running like crap recently.
Starview HD combo works well on the sat side, but they have not supplied new firmware to get the cable back up and running (which is why I'm selling mine), they may or may not in the future though, no one knows.

There are a few Private cable servers running HD content using DM800's, Tuners are pretty crap though

I suggest you go Sat m8 if you want a good service, at the moment the cable side is poor, with only limited channels available on both boxes.

starview combo for the sat side and if they sort the cable side you have that option also..

lucky if you find one though!! altho reiss is selling one i believe, no dish allowed on his building!

thanks for your replays. if could tell me these informations i would be very helpful to me.

I got a sky satellite dish without a sky box. which box should I buy and information on its firmware and requirements? I guess i dont need to have a sky subscription or sky box because you are just pointing your sat dish at sky's satellite and using a box with hacked firmware to decrypt channels.

thanks.
