Fortec Star reported in April 2007 they were launching the latest HD Set Top Box retailing at £150
within the next month. They also reported they expected the price to fall nearing the same time next year
which is April 2008.
As good as their word out came HD boxes which they have diligently updated on a regular basis since then.
Fortec Star are not hanging about either as their idea of "Household Automation", has been explained as
quote;
Giving aging population and disabled persons ability to turn power sources around the home on and off
(ie; lighting, heaters, etc ). We think a forward thinking company with all kinds of satellite receivers from
the bargain basement receiver available from Maplin at £24-99 for a FREESAT receiver (non HD) to the
FREESAT HD receiver or box complete with card slots and cam slots( the cam slot is for a card which would
allow viewing of subscription TV (not Sky ), for example Sport). These satellite receivers can again be
purchased from Maplin for £149-99
