    Hey all,

    Dont know if people have seen this yet, as you can't buy it over here:

    http://www1.sky.com/skygnome/

    Its like a digibox remote control, which will allow you to listen to the radio station you are playing on your tv anywhere in the hosue/garden for example. Thing is its a transmitter, think iTrip, and that is why you cant buy it over here. However this was requested as a Christmas present, and while I have no problem purchasing one in the UK, Sky keep making the point that it 'won't work over here.'

    How I cant find anything in the tech spec to suggest why it wouldnt work, and so Im assuming this is just sky being crazy - but I thought I might look for some opinons on it just in case....

    Anyone agree with me? (will work)
    Anyone agree with Sky? (wont work)
    Anyone not care? (oops, sorry)

    of course it will work over here, the digiboxes in the uk and here are the same.
