iBood

Internet's best offer online daily. Sometimes it's an exaggeration, sometimes it's not. Watching ibood is more for those of us who like to use the "I'm feeling lucky" button :)

Shipping is €12.50 to Ireland for one item or two items, and €25 for three items or four items. 4 is the limit. Bad for small items, great for 50 inch tv's!

Satellite TV (and radio)

Ah, satellite. Is there no end to the joy you bring? For many years now people all over Ireland have been reaping the benefit of Free To Air satellite transmissions. For a very modest outlay, you can get over 200 television and radio channels beamed into your home for no monthly cost. Since early May '08, these channels have been supplemented by Freesat: an offering that delivers an EPG, a range of High Definition decoder boxes and PVR functionality without a subscription. At the moment there are about 80 channels available on the EPG and the PVR boxes are not on store shelves yet but it's only a matter of time.

I'd like to make a special note of how good the satellite radio is: the sound is better quality than FM and you can get a great variety of channels. Well worth looking into!
