Telstra BigPond cable usage

Half way through current cycle and we've used 56GB of 500GB - LOL. Hey that's a fair amount for a retired couple but not from computer usage, mainly from the T-box with Foxtel and Presto.

Unpacking the new TV

Lugged the beast up the stairs by myself into one of the end bedrooms to unpack and setup. DO NOT do as I do, this is a two person job! However...if you've been doing TV stuff from the sixties then you can exempt yourself - like I have.

Unpacking the new TV

Initial setup and run auto tune. The remote control looks and feels pretty el cheapo, not as good as the Soniq’s. Channel change is quick. It amazes me in this digital era of HD, FHD and now UHD how many stations still transmit in SD/576i. Flicking through found 7MATE was transmitting in 1080i and yeah picture looks good.
