Simple question; is there a DVB-T PVR with dual tuner and LAN connexion
available in the UK?

There's one with USB, but not LAN - Topfield 5800 - which I have
myself. I also seem to recall a bunch in Denmark called Kiss who did
some network connected stuff, but I haven't looked into that in some
time. They got bought out by cisco, so I expect their products to get
a lot of investment.

I've seen the USB versions, i.e. Humax 9200T, but since it is USB client
not host I can not use a USB LAN adapter.

You can connect a Topfield TF5800 to an IP Ethernet network using a Linksys
NSLU2 (wired) or Asus ? (wireless)

See www.toppy.org.uk

I can not see a mention of a twin tuner version; they do state that they
can only record ONE programme at a time, which rules them out. Besides,
having read the manuals I do not like the idea that you programme it by
telling their web site which then tells the box what to do up to fifteen
minutes later.
