Sky has finally announced a date for its high definition service.You can start snapping up HD Sky+ boxes and subscriptions next Wednesday (12 April), though you'll have to wait a few weeks for installation.

The 160GB box costs £299,and they also want £10 a month for an HD subscription that's on top of your usual Sky digital subs. Oh, and you'll need to have an HD ready telly. www.sky.com

You guys are lucky over there in the UK...heard yesterday that the Beeb, ITV and Channel Five will running an HD trial in the summer using DTT.

Down in South Africa we're still waiting for DTT, hopefully when it arrives it will be superior to FreeView.
