Freesat receivers on sale

Freesat set-top boxes from Alba brand Grundig have appeared “for sale” on a retailer’s website.
Comet listed a high definition box, the GRUNDIG GUFSATHD, for £149.99 and a standard definition model, GUFSAT01, for £49.99. No pictures and few specifications were given, though Comet said the dimensions of both were 25x15x4cm.

The models appeared available to order, though an Alba spokeswoman said details should not have been published until the official launch of the subscription-free satellite service.
