Here’s another Freeview HD box, the Philips DTR5520. This is another of the ones that I’ll be looking at for Reg Hardware – keep an eye out for the roundup in a week or so.

In fact, so important is that as a brand, that the top of the box – as you can see in the photos – actually says “Designed by Pace.”
