August-DA701C.jpgAvailable now for just £129.95, August International’s DA701C is an all-in-one Freeview TV recorder and Media Player.

It’s 7 inch screen is paired with an antenna for picking up shows outdoors, and the rechargeable battery should remove the need to carry around a ton of AA Duracells to use it.

The DA701C receives over 40 Freeview channels, 5 analogue channels as well as Freeview radio stations. It also plays AVI video, MP3s, WAV, and photos in JPEG format directly from memory cards, USB sticks or from external media with a USB interface. In a nice touch, the TV also has the ability to record Freeview TV on to an USB memory stick or external hard drive .
