Does anyonw know anything about this new Eurovox model, the TX I think? Is it different from the Max V 2008 in any way other than looks and will firmware upgrades and support be withdrawn in favour of the new model like it has been for the red and blue boxes?

I believe it is for non cable users mainly in Ireland and uses MMDS technology. I quote from another thread in this forum:-

Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service, also known as MMDS, is a wireless technology, used as another method of providing television reception in areas where there are no cable feeds or where another provider wishes to compete against the cable company.

It uses microwave freq's in the band range 2 GHz to 3 GHz. A small rooftop aerial is required to receive reception from a main transmitter.

The current EV does not work with certain companies MMDS broadcasts.
