i think u can get one but u have to sign up to the hd service which is a tenner extra a month.
could just do that and u get better quality and a bigger hard drive.

You can buy them without contract from www.dreamboxshop.co.uk but you will pay full price. I got mine from there and installed it myself a year or so ago.

i dont know if it will be the same the other way round, but i had a sky HD box, it knackered up after a week, so swapped back to the sky+ one untill they came out to swap the HD box, but when i put the card back into the sky+ box i only got half the channel, and no i am not counting the HD channels, lol

i'd swap the hard driver over as per a thread on av forums, but i'm not sure what they are on about when they say you've got to partitio the hard drive with something

you cvan only record 40 hours on the normal sky+ box
you can record 80 hours on the skyHD box in SD
but only 20 hours worth of HD programs
if i replace the sky+ box with the skyHD box upstairs theni gain the extra 40 hours worth of recording ability PLUS i get to record the sounds as well and not static![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
sorry for any confusion
the sky+ system has 2 inputs so you can record 2 seperate programs, but you can still watch a 3rd recorded program
as for the extra bits of hard drive, it's for the sky anytime fuctionality
