Telstra’s Linux-based T-Box to launch mid-June
Telstra today revealed it would launch its Linux-based T-Box integrated media centre set-top box from mid-June at a stand-alone price point of $299, with a sledload of free and pay-per-view content available and an associated revamp of its broadband plans in the works.
The device – built by IPTV specialist Netgem — includes two digital TV tuners and a 320GB hard disk for video recording functionality, as well as a flexible internet video platform that is designed to function as a conduit for a variety of content from Telstra’s burgeoning Media division, as well as third-party services such as YouTube.
For example, at launch the T-Box will be able to access seven standard definition digital channels from Telstra’s BigPond TV division, ranging from a 24×7 news channel, to live horse racing, sports news, Australian Football League and National Rugby League match replays and news, V8 Supercars and music.
These channels will be available free to those who buy the T-Box, although the device will be locked to Telstra’s BigPond broadband network and not usable by those subscribing to other broadband providers.
